Popsy
In memory of Thomas Eugene Gwin
From a daughter's standpoint, our dad was the ultimate
"perfectionist," extremely
passionate about everything he did, with expectations far higher
for himself than for
others. Extremely talented, and for whom the term "humble"
did not begin to describe,
he worked tirelessly from sunup until
well past midnight, every day of
every week.
Putting himself into everything he did, living each day to its fullest,
he was a leader
through example rather than lecture. He was not only one to do it
the right way,
but one to do what was right. Whether it be the organizing of family
activities,
or the orchestration of a music session, you could never be sure
what kind of an
unforgettable adventure you were in for. While patience was by no
means one of
his virtues, his tenacity and contagious sense of enthusiasm far
surpassed his inability to wait.
His laughter filled a movie theatre until those
around him were soon laughing at him rather than the movie.
We never knew how good we had it! We miss you, Pop,
and hopefully you knew how much you were loved and admired by all.
Jean Gwin and family
