To The Family of Tom Sieracki:
My deepest sympathy on the loss of your father, grandfather,uncle and brother. I have very nice memories of Tom as we lived right next door to where he grew up. It was a large family (like mine) and I have very fond memories of South Chicago and all of the Sierackis coming to visit their Dad (Pete) who I considered to be my own grandpa! Tom always had a smile and something witty to say to us when we were kids and I believe he liked cigars too! We even shared a cottage in Door County right across from them one summer! My parents loved Tom and Judy! I liked all the Sieracki's and Kandy too, as they were a lively bunch but Tom always had the best smile and laugh!
I know Tom is up there where all good souls go! I am sure of it!
God Bless him and again, my sympathy to all of you on your great loss!

Dear Sieracki Family,
You do not know me but I was a freshman at Lindblom High(1961) and your dad was my Algebra teacher. Every now and then, I think about some of the teachers that were part of my life and wonder where they are and how they are. However, in most cases, teachers never revealed their home locations, etc., so it's next to impossible to re-connect later in life. The only time you get a hint about their whereabouts, like your dad, is when they pass away. I never did get a chance to thank your dad for his contribution in my life. Your dad was always kind and respectful to his students, one who I admired. Please accept my condolences to your entire family. Respectfully , H.C.Austin, class of Jan.1965
