My sincerest condolences. I worked with Tom for years at Kodak and he was a great guy and co-worker. I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing.

Uncle Tom was a great man and will deeply be missed. I loved his subtle jokes.

Give him a drink and a billiard table and the subtleness would quickly go away!

Uncle Tom was a great man and an even better uncle and will be greatly missed.

Tom Sharlow and I worked together at Kodak for the majority of our Kodak careers. I have fond memories of working long days and playing hard at the end of the work day with Tom.

Tom was good at everything, people knew him to be a brilliant hardware and software engineer.

Did you know of Tom's skill in playing billiards?

My favorite memory was our fishing trip together in the Islands, Tom, his brother Jerry, Ed Crawford, Craig Gall, and I. My gosh what a great time we had.

I'll miss you Tom! My thoughts are with you.

Tom was a very good man, I spent some very long days working with Tom at Kodak debugging several manufacturing sites. Tom was always able to smile through the stress and his smile and sense of humor will be forever etched in my memory of him.
