Tom was an avid golfer and shared his passion with his son Joey. Tom watched with great pride as Joey participated in many tournaments. Tom's support of Joey's golf journey was unwavering. Whether it was being the caddie, driver or an ear to listen, Tom was always there for Joey.
Tom and Joey's relationship was not just golf but all sports. Endless conversations and occasional debates about who had the right team or player was a daily occurrence.
Tom and Martha met when they were teamed together in a golf tournament in 1999. They quickly found that as total strangers their lives were filled with many coincidences. Both were born in Massachusetts, had family (Stohlmann Farm) from Adams, their love for golf and sports.
Tom would often say there were no coincidences, just 'things in common.' Tom and Martha married on September 20, 2008 at the beach with their son, Joey by their side.
