He held several job titles throughout his life from being a Head Chef at the Ritz Carlton Atlanta, Ga in his early 20’s to following his passion and working as Quality Control in the Agriculture Food Industry. In the 90’s Tommy had a desire to further his education and career in Management so
he attended college at the University of Georgia where he graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Poultry Science. He continued his career in Quality Management until his retirement in 2017.

Tommy was intelligent, loving, funny, kind hearted and cared deeply for his family and friends. He was a hard worker and succeeded in life but his greatest achievement and love was his beautiful Wife, 3 Sons and his granddaughter. He will forever be in our hearts. He was loved dearly and we will miss him greatly but our comfort comes in knowing he is resting in the arms of our Lord Jesus Christ.

A celebration of Tommy’s life will be held at a later date due to the current national health crisis and travel restrictions.
