Tommy enjoyed fishing, Harley Davidsons, NASCAR, hunting, anything Alaska, and wrestling, especially Rick Flair. Woo! He was a true jokester, always making people laugh. He donned himself the “Master of the Universe”. He was a super talented man when it came to computers, but he excelled at sign making. He was a master sign maker and engraver with McMillan Stamp and Sign Co. for over 40 years where he was known for his superior sign making ability. He designed and made all the Braille for the MS School of the Deaf and Blind, as well as the signs for JSU, the Civil Rights Museum, Blair E. Batson, and the Amtrak Station.
