Our sympathy to all. What a fine family Tom and Carol raised. And three beautiful granddaughters, two of which live right next to us!! We certainly feel blessed to know your family. Richard and Karen Heer

Carol and Family, I was privileged to have your husband and father as an instructor at UW-Platteville in the early 70's. I remember him fondly for he was a fine teacher, friend and mentor. I will remember him for his sense of humor and his kindness. to me. My heart goes out to you all, it is so hard to lose someone you love. You are in my thoughts and prayers and my heart aches for your loss. Warmest regards to you all. Diane

Very sad to learn that one of my first theatre mentors, Dr Thomas S Goltry, former professor of theatre at UW-Platteville, & Associate Director of the now closed Wisconsin Shakespeare Festival for 23 yrs, passed away. We met in 1970 when he cast me as one of the leads in the first play he directed at Platteville, "The Firebugs", & theatre came into my life to stay, just like that... Not only a great teacher, he also loved his family deeply, & my condolences to Carole, Scott, Ann, & the rest of his family. Hundreds of his former students are currently thinking, "He was my favorite teacher!" He is greatly missed. RIP, Doc...

Carole, Scott and Anne, My sincere sympathies to you. I first met Tom as a student in the theatre department of UW-Platteville. His patience, enthusiasm and sense of humor made him one of my favorite professors. And he was an occasional customer of mine at Helker Jewelry , who I so enjoyed waiting on when he was shopping for something special. He will be remembered by many for the kind gentleman he was. May you find peace. Kay

All my love and sympathy to the family of this man that I was lucky enough to call my friend. So very sorry. Nita Kendrick Williamson
