About Tom...
	Wow, where do I begin. Besides being the Best Dad in the whole wide world he was the Best Husband and Best Friend to Bonnie as was she to him. He was also a very loving Grandfather, always so happy to have the kids over and they just loved their Grandpa. I have heard him called an awesome Uncle, wonderful Brother and also a True Dear Friend to many. Here are some stats of Dads life, most of which some of you may know but some of you may not. Birthname: Thomas Keith Bell Nickname or Handle (in truck talk): T Bell Born to: Leslie and Florence Bell (both preceeded him in death) Date of Birth: April 29, 1939 Place of Birth:  Port Angeles, WA. Spouse: Bonnie Rae (Beck) Children: Robert Thomas of Sequim, Janet Marie (Ulin)  and Stepson Stacey Ray Beck both of Port Angeles Siblings in order of birth: (Sue) Lesley LoRayne Suzanne Douglas of Spokane. Janice Arlene Davis of Spokane, Terri Ann Botts of Port Angeles, Linda Lee Bell of Port Angeles. Favorite things: Bonnie, The Grandkids,  Camping with Family and Friends, Spending time at the river with Steve, Cooking, Cooking shows, Cooking Gadgets, BBQing really big roasts,  Watching racing (motorbike or auto), Riding his road bike with his biking buddies,  and Smiling!! Favorite Music: Merle Haggard, Keith Whitley, Chet Atkins. Occupation: Longtime Log Truck Driver having to retire recently. I am so thankful that Dad had almost a year to do things that he normally wouldn't have been able to do. He enjoyed being home to read the morning paper with Bonnie over coffee and then making sure he was home and made them lunch to share. He also got to go to the river with Steve on many occasions. These things he wouldn't have got to do if he would have been still driving the truck. That gives me great peace knowing he had these special moments before he had to leave us so suddenly.
