      Upon completion of his military adventures he worked for Walt Disney Studios filming on some of the Disney animal productions.   Albert Finney of film fame, at one point in his illustrious career, had the great opportunity of working with Tom.

      The call of Montana and family brought Tom back to Butte where he could spend time with his parents.   Tom enjoyed bird hunting, fly-fishing, photographing nature and trap shooting.   The Big Hole River and Yellowstone National Park were Tom's favorite locations.   During winter months Tom enjoyed talking by amateur radio to many friends he had made around the world.   Tom was an extra class operator holding the call letters W7ARR.
