Tom's story is a deeply human portrait of resilience, humility, and grace found through decades of sobriety. Sober since July 5, 1962, Tom shares his journey with unflinching honesty—painting a picture of a once-chaotic life marked by jail stints, blackouts, failed promises, and broken family trust. But through the rooms of AA, he found not just abstinence, but emotional and spiritual transformation. He emphasizes action over intellect, and service over self—rooting his recovery not in knowledge of the Big Book, but in doing what it says. His greatest victories lie not in wealth or status, but in the renewed love of his wife, the laughter of grandkids, and the pride of watching his children thrive. Tom’s story reminds us that sobriety isn’t just about stopping drinking—it’s about learning how to live, how to give, and how to be present for life’s quiet miracles.
