Tom was born on June 25, 1934 to the late Thomas Lownesborough Morison and Barbara Elise Wiegand. Following his graduation from Lafayette College with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, he was commissioned an Ensign in the United States Navy where he served aboard the USS McGoffin based out of San Diego, CA.

He spent many years traveling North America with his wife and black labs, making new friends everywhere they went.
