Tom's Story

Life How do you fill in 50+ years in a short email? Well, here is a quick summary. After high school, I went to A&M and majored in wildlife management. I graduated from A&M in January 1966, receiving my bachelor's degree, a commission as a 2nd lieutenant in the Army, and orders to Vietnam. I entered active duty as a 2nd lieutenant in the Army's Field Artillery shortly thereafter. Spent four years in the army including a combat tour in Vietnam in 1967. In 1968, I married Margaret Gee. We had two daughters, Kimberly and Deborah. We subsequently divorced. I later married Jerri Stegeman in 1983. Jerri has a son, Jeff and a daughter, Marti. When we married we just threw all the kids together and consider them all ours. Jeff graduated from Ft. Lewis College in Durango, Colorado. He lives in Colorado and works in the telecommunications industry. He and his wife, Jenn, have two daughters, Sydney and Christi, and a son, Zack. Marti, a graduate of Colorado State University, also lives in Colorado with her husband, Joe, a dentist. They have two daughters, Holly and Lucinda. Kimberly graduated from North Texas State University and lives in Texas where she recently retire...Expand for more
d as a county juvinile probation officer. She and her husband, Steve, have two sons, Bailey and Jadon. Deborah graduated from Towsen University in Towsen, Maryland. she also lives in Texas and works in the online advertising industry. She is married, and she and her husband Blake have a son, Zac and a daughter Gabby. I worked for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for 35 years beginning in 1963 while I was still at A&M. During that time was stationed in Kansas, Oklahoma, Utah, Arizona, Texas, Virginia (the Washington, DC office), Colorado, and Maryland (the DC office again). Most of my career I spent in law enforcement, and I retired in 1998 as Chief of Law Enforcement. Jerri and I lived in Columbia, Maryland, for 15 years. Shortly after I retired we moved to Fredericksburg, Texas, Dad's hometown. Jerri retired from the LBJ National Historical Park in 2008. We are very active in our church, Zion Lutheran (ELCA) and are the leaders of our church's Stephen Ministry program. I occassionally am asked to speak about my Vietnam experiences, usually at the LBJ National Park. We both enjoy theater and travel. Guess that's a quick and dirty update. {updated March 2018}
