Just thinking about Tom today and this memorial came up on my phone . I knew Tom for many years as we worked together at Olympia Dodge at the beginning of our careers and later when he was a used car manager for Continental Acura and I bought cars from him and sold him a few too . He was a family man beyond anyone I know . His love of baseball cards and the Blackhawks were always prevalent . Miss u buddy , Kevin Lantry

Tom was an absolutely amazing man - a dedicated husband, fabulous father, and a genuine person full of life and humor, beaming with a radiant outlook. He had a positive impact on those he met, and I had the blessing of having him as my neighbor while growing up. I have many fond memories of seeing him in the backyard and having passing and deeper conversations. He always seemed to be "in tune" with everyone, able to connect with them no matter what. I will miss him and wish Char, Amy, Tom, and Grace peace in heart and calmness in spirit.
