That is what we will remember,
your bravery and your love
that caring wise and watchful eye
which now peers at us from above.
We wish we knew you years ago
with your sly smile and charm,
to hear you laugh or see your smile
the uncle who we adore.
determined to give you strength
refusing to believe anything could hurt you, at least not to any length.
Uncle Tom we know you’ll be watching over us,
And make sure we get through life safely.
So we guess it’s time to say goodbye, as I shed a tear and look to the sky.
Lots and Lots of Love.....
Until We Meet Again!

I remember Tom during the many times he visited his loving sister Joanne. She was sure to make all of her friends understand how special Tom was in her life. Tom always welcomed me and my other family members with his smile, humor and kind heart. My heartfelt thoughts are with Elaine, Joe and Andrew and their entire family at this time of his passing. Especially to George and Val and children who will also miss Tom dearly. Safe Journey to Tom as he travels to the creator's world in peace.

We will all miss Uncle Tom. Although we didn't get a chance to see him as often as we would have liked, we had a good time when we did see him. He always had fun with all of the kids!
