Thomas grew up on the family farm. He attended Holy Family School in Poniatowski for eight years, then graduated from Edgar High School. He grew up as a neighbor to his future wife, Judy Williams.

Tom drove milk truck for Dvorak’s Cheese Factory while helping out on the family farm. After several years he quit driving milk truck and farmed with his father & brother. He was the best father a girl could ever want to his three very loved daughters: Kim (Barry) Hakala, Jenni Lemmer and Leslie Miller. He was treasured grandpa of Cody Lemmer, Erica (Wyatt) Allan, Marissa (Chris Huebsch) Hakala, Calysta Hakala, Austin and LaKeeya Miller. He was valued by his neighbors for his kindness and knowledge. He was known for his kind heart, soft smile and twinkle in his eye.

He is further survived by his brother, Dennis (Mary) Mille; sister, LouAnne (Tony) Lemmer and sisters-in-law: Dawn (Jose) Hernandez, Dorothy (Al) Roerig, Audrey Williams and Bernie (Jim) Kempf, and numerous nieces and nephews who loved him as much as he loved them.

He was preceded in death by his loving wife Judy, his parents, John & Clara Miller, his father & mother-in-law, Carl & Rose Williams, sonin-law, Frank Lemmer, and numerous sisters- and brothers-in-laws. A funeral services will be held Saturday, Nov. 7, 2026, at Holy Family Catholic Church in Poniatowski with visitation at 9 a.m. and the funeral Mass by Father Alan Wierzba at 11 a.m., followed by burial in the parish cemetery.
