According to Tom’s wishes, he will be cremated prior to interment in Uhrichsville’s Union Cemetery. His family plan to have a graveside service with military committal on a future date. In lieu of flowers, charitable contributions honoring Tom’s memory may be made to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
