Carolyn Cecil, Tommy's loving wife of the past 32 years, points to the positive impact felt by thousands of students throughout his 39-year career with HISD. As the Director of Testing for over 20 years with HISD, he was a pioneer in the area of educational testing and one of four founders of the Annual Texas Assessment Conference.
Tommy dedicated his life to service and leadership in the military, educational administration, church, community, and professional organizations. Tommy's many friends remember him for his generosity, his sense of humor and thoughtfulness, products from his passionate love of life. His habit of remembering their birthdays earned him the affectionate title of "The Greeting Card King".
