My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. I worked with Tom during his days at Frontier as a bus driver and a maintenance mechanic. His leadership, guidance, negotiation skills and calming manner was an asset to our union. He always made us laugh. There were times he would be telling stories and the tears would be rolling down our faces because he had us laughing so hard. His love for his family was endless. He was a great friend and even greater human being. God needed him now and we are very fortunate to have known him for his time on earth.

Mrs. Page, Bill, Tom and their families,

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. From the very first time that I met Mr. Page it was clear that his family was so important to him. And, he had the wonderful quality of making me feel like I was also part of the family every time that I have visited Bill and Caryn and the kids. May God bless your families in this time of loss.

Judy, Tom, Billy and your families,

You are in our thoughts and prayers.
To have stood next Tom, it was clear that you were in the presence of a great man. He has touched us all in so many ways. I will never forget the courage, strength and true grit that made him who he was. He was always willing to lend a hand, tell a story and have a beer. Big Mr. Page will be missed so much.

Judy and Family,

T.P. has given me many laughs and memories. I worked with him many years at Frontier. He really made me feel like I was the best cook in the world. Your loss is felt I'm sure by many many friends. He'll always have a spot in my heart.

Aunt Judy, Tommy and Billy:

I can not express in words how deeply saddened I am about the loss of Uncle Tom. He was a great Uncle who always took the time to teach Steve and I many amazing and wonderful things. He actually took the time to train my untrainable dog Crystal, remember? Those memories will be with us forever and we are all better people for having known him.

My prayers are with you during this difficult time!!!

Aunt Judy, Tom and Billy and families. It hurts to hear the news of Uncle Tom's passing. It sounds like in his usual fassion he fought as hard as he could, i would have expected nothing else. Our hearts go out to you and think for sure he is in a better place. He always treated Jake and i with love and will never forget him for that. My thoughts are with you through this hard time.

I was so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. I have lots of fun memories of Tom during our high school years at Frontier (Class of 1962). He was a nice boy who grew up to be a fine family man.

My thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time.

God Bless you.

Judy: Tommy set the standard for friendship ... known by all, loved by many, best friend to me during our shared high school years and in my memory well beyond. His qualities and values, his inherently decent nature, his pride in family remained the same throughout his years. I've never forgotten him and never will. We are poorer for his absence but richer for the time he spent with us all.

Judy, Aunt Betty, & Sally,
The news of Tommy's passing brought both sadness and calm. Although he fought hard, it was still a difficult "match" to win.
I remember a few of the pig roasts my family attended where Tommy was always hard at work to ensure the perfect meal. Yet, he also demonstrated the same concern when we discussed family, union, or political issues at the local convenient store.
He will be missed by all who knew him. Please accept my deepest sympathies.
