    • Thomas R. Drollinger, 61, of Indianapolis, entered into eternal rest on July 25, 2023. He was born on August 8, 1961 in Danville, IL to the late Richard and Rosalie Drollinger. Thomas was always the life of the party and especially loved spending time with family and friends. His fur baby, Willow, meant the world to him and always held a special place in his heart. You could often find Thomas playing darts, grilling/smoking meat, making his delicious chocolate fudge, scratching off a lottery ticket, or pulling off pull tabs. He thoroughly enjoyed his work relationship with Atlas Excavating. His fun and charismatic personality will be missed by so many but his legacy and all of the memories will be cherished forever.

      Along with his parents, he was preceded in death by his sister, Patricia.

      Thomas is survived by his loving wife, Linda Drollinger; daughter, LaTawnya; son, Dustin; 3 grandchildren; brothers, Richard, Robert (Marcia), Patrick (Gina), and Michael; sisters, Rebecca (Ed), Donna (Wayne), and Mary Jo (Jeff); sister- in-law?s, Alice, Sharon, Bev, and Sheila; along with his brother- in-law, Randy.

      A memorial visitation will be held on Saturday, August 5, 2023 from 11:00 AM ? 12:30 PM with a memorial service to follow at 12:30 PM at Little & Sons Funeral Homes ? Beech Grove, 1301 Main St., Beech Grove, IN 46107. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to the American Cancer Society.
