To all that loved Tom........

we share many a happy memory of Tom, he will truly be missed. We shared many New Years Eve celebrations, visits to Tamarac, births, christenings (Tom and Donna were Godparents to our daughter, Katie), milestone birthday parties, and simply good company. Tom was a very special part of our lives and our sympathy goes out to all his family and loved ones.

Hello everyone,

I wanted to take moment to thank you all for the wonderful cards, calls, e-mails our family has received on behalf of dad. He fought the good fight all the way to the end. He was our dad, and he was our hero but most of all, he was our friend. It is so comforting to know you all thought him your friend too. Thank you all and you too will be in our prayers as we navigate thru this difficult time in our lives.



Sincerely,



Laura Lindstrom

Tommy Lindstrom...My boyhood baseball buddy. We were great teammates. At St. Joe's we both wanted the number 14 in Baseball and Basketball, I caved and went with number 10 and to this day still think of this... our friendship meant more than fighting for a number.

Don't know if anybody remembers, but he sang an Elvis tune in our school play in the early 60's. Did pretty well too! My thoughts are with all of you gathered to pay the respect that he deserves. A good man, a good husband, father and grandfather.
