With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Tom Doggett on January 14, 2025, at the age of 66 surrounded by the love and support of his wife and family.

Tom was inducted to the Lincoln Pius X Athletics Hall of Fame on August 5, 2023, for his outstanding accolades in football, baseball and basketball. After high school, he attended the University of Nebraska and a member of the football team until injuries shortened his career.

Tom was a very successful businessman starting off his career as a Runza restaurant franchisee in Omaha. In 2009 to present, he worked at Lincoln Trucking as a warehouse supervisor.
Tom loved to travel and all sports and was well-known to play a round or two of golf. His greatest love though was his family. The efforts of the previous two years were definitely outweighed by the loving joy he received from his two granddaughters.

granddaughters Brynlee and Brooklyn Doggett, daughter’s of Taylor and Siara, mother Karlene Doggett, brother Larry Doggett, sister Monique Dogget and proceeded in death by his father Larry Doggett.
