He is survived by his wife, Helen, sons: Don (Cathy) Larsen of Spanish Fork, Darwin (Maxine) Larsen of Price, Clay (Callene) Larsen of Price, seven grandchildren, and twelve great grandchildren. He is also survived by siblings Rhea Timothy, Delon (Holly) Larsen and Wade (Linda) Larsen. He was preceded in death by his parents, six brothers: Leo, Archie, Claude, Larry, Neal, and Glen and two sisters: Marietta (Etta) Henrie and Wanda Downard.
Tom and Helen were married November 10, 1946, a marriage which was later solemnized in 1988 in the Manti Utah Temple. They were blessed to be married for 69 years. Tom served his country during WWII in the Army Corps, stationed in Panama. Tom, a lifelong resident of Wellington, Utah, was a devout member of the UMWA- local 1206 (Secretary), and served as Mayor of the city, having been elected as a write-in candidate. He was a passionate Democrat his entire life and was an active Latter Day Saint, holding several church positions. Tom was known for his work ethic and creative talents. As an entrepreneur, he developed several businesses, including Larsen Farm Supply and lived by the motto "Nothing works until you do."
His greatest legacy was as a devoted husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. Tom loved spending time with his family and friends and filled his role as patriarch of his family with passion and love. We will miss him.
