Tom served a full-time mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Northern California Mission where he met a certain sister missionary, Sister Marlene Meyers from Salt Lake City. Upon returning to Utah they began dating and quickly became sweet hearts. They were married for eternity in the Salt Lake Temple on March 19, 1958. They were blessed with 5 children.

Tom graduated with a bachelor’s degree from BYU in Sociology with a minor in Psychology. He went on to earn a master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Utah.

He diligently and successfully controlled his own diabetes for over 70 years.

He was a faithful, active member of the LDS Church. He served in many callings including bishop, high counselor, gospel doctrine teacher and home teacher. At the age of 42, he was called to be Stake Patriarch of the Butler Stake where he served for 32 years.
