Thomas C. Feser was born June 4, 1973 to Tom and Judie (Walton) Feser at Marshall County Memorial Hospital in Britton, SD. Tom attended school in Langford, graduating in the class of 1991. Following graduation he attended North Dakota State College of Science and Northern State University before graduating from Lake Area Tech.  He then moved back to Claremont and worked various jobs over the years.  He was blessed with two daughters, Ashlyn and Mya.

 

He was involved with the Claremont Fire Department for over 35 years, including serving as Fire Chief for a number of years.  He also recruited teams to play in the Claremont Memorial Co-ed softball tournament. Tom had a huge heart and was willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need, or make a few phone calls and get a whole group of helpers.  If you met him once, you were a friend forever.  In his free time, he enjoyed watching football and was a fan of WWE. He was a great cook and liked making pickles.

 

Tom passed away Friday, May 23, 2025 at Avera McKennan Hospital in Sioux Falls, SD, at the age of 51.

 

He is survived by his wife, Jess Hartberg-Feser, daughters Ashlyn and Mya Feser, step-son, Seth Weiszhaar, and his faithful furkids, Spot, Lucy, and Ranger.  His sister, Tami (Doug) Svatos and brother, Jim Walton.

 

Preceding him in death are his father in 1979, mother in 2012, and his sister-in-law, Carrie Walton in 2014.
