Tom has been married to his high school sweetheart, Jeanne, for 40 years. They have a son, Jeremy. Tom and Jeanne enjoy everything that has to do with the outdoors. They hike, ride snowmobiles, mountain bike, camp at PA state parks and kayak. They also enjoy touring on their Goldwing and geocaching. While they love photographing elk, they have a passion for all wildlife and anything in nature. Presently, they are trying to see how many different species of ducks they can photograph.
Tom and Jeanne rescued their cat, Casey, when he was abandoned by his former owners. He is a big cat with a huge personality and he definitely loves his new home.
