He was a kind, thoughtful and good friend as well as his wife Ellen. His friends along with Fr George thought so much of him and all the good work he did for St Anthony Church. He will be surely missed. Tom and I will always be thankful for all his help and kindness. May God Bless and keep him in His infinite care.

Tom was a devoted husband to his beloved wife Ellie, grandfather and Catholic. He was a good friend who could be counted on to help his fellow Parishioners any time and at all hours. He served his church faithfully and tirelessly for many years. As a personal friend he will be sadly missed for his humility and sense of humor.
