I am heart broken over the death of Tomas. So young to have left this earth. I know he was a wonderful husband and father. I'm sorry that we didn't get to know him better on Pioneer Quest. God bless Pat and the family.

Tom lightened up our meetings at the club and was a man of good character. He entertained us with his comical hunting experiences and that sense of humor will be missed. His commitment to his family should be cherished.

Dear Pat

We were so taken back to hear of Tom's passing. He was a wonderful person! Always smiling! Always ready with an extended handshake! You will miss him always, but have Peace in your Heart that he is with the Great Carpenter above. Apparently his talents were needed elsewhere. He has left you with beautiful children any many many good memories.

You & Tom will be in our Prayers.

Dear Pattie & Family,

Bob & I were notified of Tom's passing by Bob's family tonight. We offer our deepest condolences to you,Pattie, and your children. It came as quite a shock to us as we were looking forward to seeing you all when you came out to Bass Lake to look at some property near us.

We will always remember Tom with his friendly personality and happy

smile. Pattie our thoughts are with you. Sincerely Bev & Bob

Tom and entire Ziolkowski Family,



I am very sorry to hear about the passing of your father. I offer my most sincere condolences. I only knew him through Ignatius Baseball, but he always struck me as friendly and happy man, and deicated father to Tom. He'll be in my prayers.

Tom,

You were one of the nicest people Bill and I ever met and we will miss you. I have so many good memories of the work you did for District 125. I hope your family will find comfort in the memories you leave behind you.

Tom always had a wonderful outlook on life and had a contagious smile. When we last saw him a few weeks ago at his niece's wedding he made a special effort to come and talk with us since we hadn't seen each other in several years. How nice to have that wonderful last memory of Tom. Our hearts go out to his loving family who always surrounded him with their love. He will return their love as he smiles down upon them from his place in Heaven Above.

Dear Patti, Tommy, Kelly & Jim,

Please accept our deepest sympathies on the loss of your wonderful husband and father. There isn't a memory Art, Sean & I have of Tom that doesn't bring a smile to our lips. We talked of him this summer during the pennant race of the Cubbies. He was one of the finest men we ever had the pleasure of knowing. May God rest his soul and bring you comfort during your time of sorrow. The world has lost a wonderful man. Our love and prayers, Art,Patti & Sean
