Tory graduated from Heritage High School in 2021.
Affectionately regarded as "Mr. T" and "T- Man", Tory loved church, music, and children. He also loved sports, especially football, but most enjoyed spending time with his family. Tory delighted in conversations, as he was an exceptional listener. He loved the ladies and the ladies loved him.
Tory's proudest achievement was being selected as the feature child for Easter Seals 2006. Although he was challenged with cerebral palsy, Tory never ceased to be joyful and loving with a sense of humor. His intelligent and easy-going nature will be forever admired and his loving spirit will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
