On October 23, 1982, Tom was married to Jane Ulmer and they were blessed with two children, Amy and Phil. Tom worked for Farmland, IBP and River View Pork.

Tom was an avid Iowa Hawkeye and Pittsburgh Steelers football fan. He loved music and enjoyed spending time with family, especially teasing his nieces and nephews.
