I miss you my friend. We had so much fun in high school. Thanks for the memories

Katie February 24, 2023

I love and miss you every day dad. Not one day goes by that I don’t think about you and your kind heart and beautiful contagious smile. They say it gets easier with time I don’t believe that . Dad I love you so much and nothing is the same without you here I’m so sorry you had to leave this earth and leave us even though I know you’re in a better place. You were too good for this world dad way too good especially what it is turning into but we needed you here to show people what a great man is, really a perfect man! I miss you so so much what I would do to just hug you one more time and share a good laugh with you… I love you dad and always will..

Worked with Tom for nearly 20 years. So sorry for your loss. Tom was an upbeat guy who was a joy to be around. Many fond memories will be held in my mind. Even though we had a working relationship, I feel like we could talk about anything. Makes me smile when I think of him.

Dave John June 4, 2022

Thank you for allowing the Monroe County American Legion Honor Guard to give Tom a final salute. A huge honor for me to speak but also so difficult to say good bye to a friend.

God bless your family.

Tammie and Peter Santini June 2, 2022

What a wonderful man. I'm so sorry to hear of his passing. He "took care of our building". He made you feel like your building was the most important thing to him. He also made you feel that way as a person. He will be truly missed on this earth. Heaven has another angel.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Sincerely, Miss Julie (Duthoy)

Kimberly May 31, 2022

Heaven has truly gained one of the best angels that can be. From the very first time I met Tom doing my first missing children's bike ride and all of the other fun rides we did together, I knew this was a man of integrity, dedication and the most fun to be around. Please know how deeply saddened I am and will continue to pray for comfort and peace for all of you. Rest in heavenly peace Tom. You will be deeply missed.

Wendy S. May 31, 2022

Bonnie,
I am so sorry for your loss. I have only known Tom for a short time but he was a great guy! My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

Kim Weilert May 31, 2022

Bonnie, Amanda & Katie- My heart aches to hear this sad news. Know that I'm thinking of you and the family in this time of need. Tom was the kindest and most caring person I've known. His smile and laughter were contagious, he'll never be forgotten. RIP Tom

Shelly Sheridan May 31, 2022

Bonnie-there are no words that can be said that will help with your loss. My heart is heavy for you and your family but I smile as I think of Tom. It always brightened my day when he would stop in to raid the candy jar or when he would come quickly when we needed heat (or air) in the conference rooms. His smile and laugh were genuine and warm and he will be greatly missed.

Lisa May 31, 2022

When the gates of heaven opened to receive Tom, they gained a man of such great stature and character.
Tom was truly a selfless and devoted husband, father and friend. Anyone lucky enough to know Tom or be a part of his life, saw how he lived and loved everyone so freely. Words that come to mind when describing Tom are honest, caring, devoted, hard working, dedicated and very funny.
You are forever in my heart Tom…Rest in peace brother, rest in peace.

Kat St.Gelais May 31, 2022

Tom was a beautiful soul! The definition of kindness and always willing to help anyone. The world lost another source of light and happiness and he will be truly missed. I have no doubt he's in a much better place now and at peace...may we all be luck enough to see/join him again someday! Prayers to the family!
