I first met Tom on a satellite when I became licensed in 1993. Tom was a very well liked ham and on the satellites almost all the time. Originally operating from Las Vegas, you could find him on almost every pass of AO-13, UO-14, SO-50, AO-27 and the like. I had many QSO's with him over the years. When his wife retired, he moved to Utah were he promptly setup his station and got back on the air. 73 my friend, you will be missed.
