Tom was a proud 1960 graduate of Uniontown High School, where he was a standout member of the Uniontown Raiders Basketball Team. His love for the game never wavered, as he continued to play well into his fifties in the over-thirty-five league. Known affectionately as the “Chip-Man”, Tom worked for over thirty years at Frito-Lay, where he made great friendships and made an unforgettable mark with his kind nature and infectious smile.
