He was born in Cloquet on July 27, 1949 to Gene and Betty (Decker) Lavan. He was united in marriage to Sharon Tobias on August 26, 2020, after a long and happy courtship. Tom grew up in Cloquet and graduated in 1968. When a young man, he was an avid hunter and trapper. He served on a Navy destroyer during the Vietnam war. He was a gifted mechanic and worked in mechanical positions at L&M Fleet Supply (Cloquet), ReachAll (Duluth), and Riverwood International (Deerwood). If it was broken, he could fix it. Fishing was his passion, and he was fortunate to live at a lakeside for many years. He enjoyed tinkering in his shop and making woodcrafts, especially to give as gifts.
