Thomas F. Conway, 72, passed away peacefully from natural causes on May 2 in Ballston Spa, NY.

Tom was born in Wilkes-Barre, PA, and raised in Harrisburg by his parents Thomas and Mary Conway. He was a 1965 graduate of Bishop McDevitt High School and attended Harrisburg Area Community College. He was a project manager for  The A. G. Mauro Company, a distributor of architectural doors and hardware. In addition to playing slow pitch softball himself for several years, Tom was an active supporter of youth sports, particularly those involving his daughters. He served for many years as a coach for Lakevue Recreation Association in suburban Harrisburg, and as an ASA umpire for girls softball. He instilled teamwork, dedication, and sportsmanship in every child that he coached. He was a passionate New York Yankees fan and loved to attend games as often as he could. 

Tom is survived by two daughters, Kelsey Pace (Joseph) of Lincoln Park, NJ, and Kerri of Shiremanstown, PA; one grandson, Weston; one sister, Sheila Lindsay, of Gansevoort, NY, three nieces, and several great nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents.
