As a kid, I remember Tom at the First Presbyterian Church in Pearland where he and my parents Sallye and Edgar Fondren were members. He was a very kind and respectable person. Tom wanted what was best for everybody in Pearland and strived to grow the town in a manner consistent with his inclusive, volunteer oriented beliefs.
Tom gave of himself and his time everyday of his adult life. I know God has a place of honor at his table for a man that gave of himself so generously.
I moved from Pearland around 1990 to begin my life on my own and my parents both died a few years back, but I know that I can speak on my parents behalf and say that it was a joy to know Tom.
Sincerely,
Matt Fondren
