Tom was the Uncle Tom
everyone knew and loved. He never had a lot but he
did have a heart of gold. Caring with a gentle soul
he would give what he could to help and comfort
others when asked. The world will not be the same
without his wit that could make you laugh till you
cried. Everyone was instantly happier in his
presence. |
Tom enjoyed bicycling,
restoring motorcycles and classic cars. He had a
natural talent for drawing. He could always beat you
at a hand of cards. Tom retired from Garland Gehrke
Trucking after 17 plus years. He had also worked at
Lehn and Fink in Lincoln for many years.
Memorials may be made to his family.
Peasley Funeral Home is assisting the family with
arrangements.
