Even as young man at Mead High School, Tom was known as a gentle giant with a quick smile.  After graduation he went into law enforcement and then, years later, answered his true calling, becoming a Spokane teacher.  The Class of '69 sends its condolences to his wife, Phyllis and family.  We will print the obituary here once a link is provided.
