Thomas M. Good

Thomas M. Good was born on January 15, 1952, in Coleman, TX.  He was the second child born to Thomas Don and Wanda Jean Good.  Tom graduated high school from the Ozark Academy in Gentry Arkansas and later continued his studies and graduated from the University of Texas at Arlington.  As an adult he lived in various places before buying a home in Cleburne, TX, in 1994. He enjoyed spending time with his mother and daughters, road trips, hunting, fishing, was a great outdoorsman and loved his Dallas Cowboys.  He also had a love and thirst for learning that was never quenched and enjoyed teaching others; either in the classroom or with his daily “history lessons” quoted from memory.  He eventually moved to a nursing home in Friendswood to be near his daughters and grandchildren.  Tom passed peacefully from this life on the morning of May 31, 2016, after a gradual decline in health.  He was surrounded and supported by his loving family and caregivers during the last days of his life.  He will be missed by all who knew him.   Tom is survived by two daughters: Rachel Good, Rebecca Clark and her husband, Chris; and two grandchildren: Alden and Annaston Clark.  Tom is also survived by his mother, Wanda Jean Good Able; and sisters Kathryn Good and Paula Allen Good.    A celebration of life will be held on Sunday, September 4th at 10:00am.  Location:  Memaw’s Farm, 305 Scenic Oak Lane, Waco, TX 76712.
