To Tom's Family and friends,



What a wonderful, caring, sensitive, and funny man. All of us who worked with Tom at Continental Bank thought the world of him. He always had a smile and a good hearted comment. My deep condolences to you. I'm sure he will be greatly missed but I'm also sure he will leave a legacy of fabulous stories and great memories.



Sincerely,

Martha Sanders

Mrs. Tomaszewski and Family:



My sincerest condolences on your loss. I am one of many "Ex-Cons" who worked with Tom at Continental Bank, Bank of America and finally at US Trust. Some days were better than others, but, he found a way to get through the tough days with courage and a sense of humor. He spoke of you often. He was a good man.



Sincerely,



GNR

To Lynn and family,



We have been neighbors for over 20 years. We have seen our children grow and mature over the years together.



We were here when Tom started his garden, his labor of love. We watched him smile and laugh as he continued to build it over the years. He was a great, kind man who will be missed dearly.



We will think of him every time we look out into the back and picture him working away. He will remain in our hearts. We will plant a tree in our yard in his honor.



Please accept our sincere condolenses in the loss of someone so special.



Sincerely, Jim, Karen, Dan, Brittany, and Greta.
