How sad we are to have learned Fr. Tom is now resting with the angels. We truly enjoyed his Basket Blessing service every Holy Saturday and would travel for miles to assemble for our tradition. It will not be the same without Fr. Tom. May his memory be eternal. The Bonk Children, Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren.

Father Tom married me and my husband Domenic last August. He was the sweetest, kindest, funniest man. He knew how to make you feel comfortable. Truly a loss on Earth and a gain in Heaven. May you Rest In Peace, Father. You will be greatly, greatly missed.

Thank you for your years of service to the Church. Despite all of your accomplishments, you were one of the humblest people I have ever met. Your gentle and unassuming manner belied a host of accomplishments, honors, and knowledge. I will miss you, but you will remain an inspiration to me. I am looking forward to seeing you again someday!

I am sorry for your loss. Father Enright hired me as the principal at St. Alphonsus School in Lemont. He was one of the kindest priests I ever worked with. He was missed when he was transferred.

Fr. Tom did so much for Our Lady of Ransom when he came six years ago. I altar served with him many times, and later worked in the parish office, so I frequently experienced Fr. Tom's kind personality. He will be sorely missed by all of us.

I am so sad to hear of Father Tom's passing. He made mass fun, even for a little girl that didn't want to sit still in the pews! His love for God, the church, and its parishoners was evident. He was so kind and friendly, always smilng, and he always remembered our names. He is easily my favorite pastor, and I will miss him. Rest in peace, Father Tom. Thank you for all you did for St. Alphonsus.

Fr. Enright was a very special mentor to me. He hired me as Choir Director when I was quite young, and he had confidence and faith in me. As a result, I am still working a position of choral directing after all these years. I am forever grateful to him. I will miss Fr. Tom immensely. He was a wonderful man.
