  Leygraaf, Thomas J. "Elvis" Thomas Leygraaf went to be with the Lord on Monday, March 5, 2007, after a courageous two-year battle with lung disease. Tom was born in Little Chute, August 8, 1938, to the late Lambert & Johanna Leygraaf. Tom was an easy-going, witty person with a great sense of humor. He was very talented in art, music & poetry. His big joy was spending time at his home at Roberts Lake. He loved nature. Tom is survived by his wife, Carol, who he married December 29, 1965.

Thomas was preceded in death by his daughter, Sherry; his son-in-law, Chad Liebhauser; his brother-in-law, Leroy Calmes; his niece, Linda Calmes and nephews: Bruce Berger and Kenneth Hammen. Tom was talented in poetry. This is an excerpt from his poem "My flower my wife." Now when life's autumn frost touch your petals as time passes by. Then me & my flower will wither & die, but what better way for life to pass by then being together my flower & I.
