Tommy will be greatly missed by all those fortunate enough to have crossed his path in life. He was gentle, kind, and thoughtful, had a warm heart and a quick sense of humor, and was always willing to assist his friends, neighbors, customers and to mentor his younger peers. Tommy was a devout Catholic and truly a man of humble heart. Tommy was an avid outdoorsman and especially loved fishing and hunting with best friend from grammar school, Teddy Brady. A resident of Lacombe, LA for the last eight years, Tommy never missed any of the many social events on Main Street and was a founding, and cherished member, of the Bayou Lacombe Port Commission. Tommy was a sports enthusiast and enjoyed all sports especially, football, basketball and golf. He was a Saints fan and a Pelicans fan, but his world revolved around his beloved LSU Tigers, regardless of the sport.
