Tom met Laura Krenke of Ellendale and they enjoyed spending time together. It did not matter where they were, or who they were with, you would hear laughter and stories being told. Their endless love for each other shined and radiated onto those around them. Tom also enjoyed spending time with Bella, Laura’s dog. Tom will be greatly missed by Jeff and Melody (Krenke) Ulrich, and their children, Zach, Tucker, and Mya. Tom came into their lives after the passing of Melody’s father, Gerald Krenke. Tom had become a part of their family and Tom will forever be held close in their hearts.
