My family has many treasured memories with Tommy and the Thompson family. We’ve enjoyed Gator tailgating, football games, 4th of July gatherings and so much more.

Deepest condolences to Shirley, Lori, family and friends.
My sincere condolences and love to Shirley, Lori and all who knew Tommy.
What a shame! I first met Tommy at Rotary and then as Co members of the Gainesville Quarterback Club. We both owned Maseratis and I always loved his Ferrari Testerrosa. Tommy was a true gentlemen. It was a real privilege to know him. The world will not be quite as nice a place without him. I am so sorry for your loss. Bill Pokorny.
Tommy recruited me as a Salvation Army bell ringer through Rotary for many years. Who could say no to his sweet smile and gracious requests?! His steadfast dedication to service made our community a better place. He will be missed.
Tommy and his family were a part of my entire life. So many happy memories. Always the gentleman and a smile and true appreciation for life and his friends. He will be missed. Love to Shirley and his family.
