Thomas Carlton Fricker
July 12, 1966 — December 4, 2025
Thomas “Tom” “Tommy” Carlton Fricker passed away on December 4, 2025, at the age of 59. Born on July 12, 1966, Tom will be remembered for his warm sense of humor, his caring and supportive nature, and his ability to make others feel understood.
Tom was creative and loved the finer details of life. He enjoyed singing, decorating, and especially searching for the “antique of the week” — his favorite kind of treasure. His passion for the beauty industry led him to own and operate T. Carlton’s Spalon for over 20 years, where he found joy not only in the work itself but in the connections he made. He truly loved his salon team and clients, many of whom became like family.
Tom is survived by his three children, Jared, his daughter-in-law Stephanie, Aaron, and Arden, and his cherished granddaughter Gemma, who were his most incredible pride.
He is also survived by his sister Denise, his brother-in-law David, nieces Jessica and Jillian, nephew Joey, Aunt Jeannette and Cousin Julie. He will be remembered by many relatives and dear friends who will forever hold his memory close to their hearts.
Always remembered by Christine, mother of his children, who shared many years of family, memories, and love through their children.
He will forever be missed and remembered for the love he gave and the light he brought into every room.
