Thomas D Baldwin, 57, of Chrisman, formerly of Westville, IL, joined his mother, twin sister, and the love of his life, Carla in Heaven on March 03, 2025. Tommy was born on January 21, 1968. He was an avid fan of the Kansas City Chiefs and former NASCAR driver Dale Jarrett. Tommy loved the outdoors and was formerly employed at DynaChem. Being outside in the sunshine with a Bud in one hand was indeed his happy place. He enjoyed hunting for mushrooms and fishing. His most loved sport was playing horseshoes. He could throw a shoe and enjoyed playing with family and friends.
Tommy is survived by a brother Ron of Evansville, IN, sisters Penny (Tracy) of Hillard OH, Pepper and Pam both of Georgetown, IL, and Rhonda in Louisiana. Also surviving are Tom’s three children. His oldest daughter, Amber, whom he shared with the late Deena Styer, a son, Tyler and youngest daughter Gailyn whom he shared with Kristy Williams (she also survives). Tommy had two grandsons, Braxton and Noah who he loved very much. Tommy had many nieces and nephews that he was like a father to; he was the man that always showed up when he was needed. He was also blessed with many great-nieces and nephews whom he treated all the same.
Per Tommy’s wishes, there will not be any services. He will be laid to rest in Covington, Indiana with his mother and twin sister. Online condolences: www.rortvedtfuneralservices.com
