It was such a pleasure knowing you Tom. Always at the ready with a smile, hug and “it’s good to see you”. Aly and I were fortunate to share many fun times with you, Dee and the gang…we will remember them fondly.

Dolores, little did we know the day that you introduced Tom to our family, the impact he would have on each and every one of us. Tom was always loving, considerate, and caring and he especially took care of our Mother and was there whenever he could be.
I have wonderful memories of Tom that will be with me forever. He truly loved his family and extended family and Heaven has opened its gates to welcome him home. I will miss him dearly. Love, Your sister Joanie
