He was born September 8, 2000, to Jamie Wallace and April Erskine Dery in Fort Worth, Texas He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Stephen Edward “Eddie” Erskine; and Uncle, Hubert “Bert” Erskine. Tommy spent his days surrounded by his family and friends. He was driven, motivated and determined in everything to which he was committed. He loved playing football. He started out playing flag football for Springtown Lions Club and followed it through the 8th grade. The talent he possessed was undeniable. In the words of Coach Paul Foster…” Go Get Em Hoss” …as Tommy was sent onto the field for his very first tackle and penalty. Tommy loved Coach Paul until the end. There will never be enough words to express that kind of love. He also loved going on road trips, hiking and trails with his friends. He would always take them to “His Spot”. The memories he made with his friends there will live on forever in their hearts. He was passionate about music. All music. If you ever spent time him, and he shared music with you…you have a beautiful playlist. He loved helping people. He never asked for anything in return. He would give the shirt off his back to wipe the sweat off your brow. Tommy’s life was taken too soon from this place. May his legacy live on through all the lives and hearts he touched.
