Thomas Eldon Presley was called home to Heaven on March 22, 2017. He was born on June 19, 1927 to the late James Elbert and Effie Presley.

He is survived by his wife of 64 years, Georgia Presley; daughters Pam (Harold) Hays of Little Rock; Peggy (Chuck) Mills of Hot Springs Village; grandchildren Missy (Forrest) Fikes of Hot Springs; and Brett Hays of Cammack Village; great grandchild Jett Fikes of Hot Springs; sisters Mary Harding of Pomona, California; Willa Davis of Calion and Anna (Delbert) Heffington of Conway; and many nieces and nephews.

Tom served in the Army in World War II and worked for Canteen Service for 39 years. He was a member of Geyer Springs First Baptist Church and loved going to Keenagers. Tom loved his family and enjoyed being a ''Papa'' to his grandchildren and great grandchild. His favorite things were watching NASCAR, the Razorbacks and Cowboys and going to Cracker Barrel.

We would like to thank the staff at Good Shepherd Nursing and Rehabilitation and Hospice Home Care for loving and taking care of our Daddy.

I never met Mr. Presley, however, I am familiar with the results of his life as a husband and father to his daughters. He was a fine southern gentleman. My sympathy to the family.

I have many good memories of Tom during his Canteen years. I was the Wonder bread man, and each morning I would see him, he was always so cheerful and friendly with a good word. He truly brightened my days. Heaven is getting a really good man in Tom. Prayers for the family.

Peggy, Pam and families - I have such fond memories of both your parents. As a child I always thought Mr. Tom was so handsome and tall, and so kind and funny. I am quite sure that he and J.T. have found each other up in Heaven by now and are talking about their Razorback and Cowboys!
I know how hard this time is for you - just lean on God and each other and hang on to our Hope. Love you.

I remember the first time i saw a giraffe at the zoo, i said it was almost as tall as Uncle Eldon.

What a wonderful loving person who is going to be missed by all that knew him. Thoughts and prayers with Pam and Peggy and all the family.
