Tommy graduated from Lewis Mills High School in 2014. His biggest passion in life was music. An avid singer and guitarist, he spent countless hours perfecting his craft. His biggest joy was performing onstage. Tommy was talented, creative, and eccentric.
Tommy’s life was derailed by Stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Cancer at age 20 and reoccurrence at age 22. Tommy fought courageously beating cancer both times, surrounded by his supportive family and friends. He struggled afterwards with the fear of reoccurrence, and the trauma of battling such a horrible disease at the prime of his life.
Tommy was very loved by his family and friends and will always be remembered for his bravery and strength. He fought everything thrown at him the best he could. He loved his little sister so much and was always so proud of her and she of him. The family would like to thank everyone for their love and generosity during Tommy’s battles with cancer and a special thank you to Leah Parrott for her constant love and emotional support to Tommy.
He will live on forever in our hearts and through his music.
