“As we navigate this time of sorrow, let us hold on to the memories of Tom — his smile, laughter, the love, and the countless ways he made our lives better,” they said. “His legacy will live on in his beautiful young family and the hearts of all who knew him. “Our heartfelt condolences to Tom’s wife, children, parents, brothers and all extended family.” The Queensland man had been living in Yellowknife, Canada, with his wife and children for a number of years.
