Tommy Wayne was a born explorer, tinkerer, fix-it guy, question asker, fisherman, ornery, brilliant champion to all the people he loved. Loving son to Margie and Luther Myers, Tom had a charmed childhood following along with his parents, brother, Luther (Tunky) and sister Susie and a host (hundreds) of cousins, aunts and uncles.

Besides his family, his work and service in the U.S. AirForce was his pride. As a Vietnam Veteran, he was the most patriotic and dedicated of citizens. In his retirement, he met and married Ruth Allen. They had twenty years of travel, work on the "farm" and visits with children and grandchildren together.
Hands down, he was the best father, Papa Tom, Uncle Tommy, brother, husband and Chief ever. Hope you catch the Big One.
