Tom is survived by his wife, Diana, of 61 years, his daughter, Kelli Cox (Larry), son, Adam Todd Jones (Mouna), his sister, Ada Shissler, four grandchildren and nine great grandchildren.
Tom was recruited from Elmwood, Illinois with a scholarship to William Jewell College in Liberty, Missouri in 1958. He was a proud member of Phi Gamma Delta Fraternity, graduating in 1962 with a major in mathematics. After a successful career at Hallmark, Tom became President of Morgan, Inc., a licensing company with an exceptional staff of artists who created characters for products. One of the most successful was Teddy Beddy Bear, who because of Tom’s efforts, appeared on books, porcelain, baby bedding, etc.
Tom was a great friend to many who joined him in bowling, basketball, tennis, and hospital events as he served seventeen years on the Liberty Hospital Board. He will be greatly missed.
