Angela; I worked with Tom for many years. He was a excellent emplopyee and a great friend. Many times we would go fishing after work, and in retirement meet for lunch on Fridays at "THE CLUB". On holidays he would show up dressed as Santa or maybe an Army Vet or Halloween mask. He always had a joke to tell and everyone there could count him as a friend. We will surely miss him. He added so much to our lives.

Uncle Tommy, whenever I think of childhood picnics and family gatherings I warmly remember your bright smile and sense of humor. Now you have my dad, your brother John, for company in heaven where you can continue your love of fishing. Love you and thank you for all of those sweet memories that will always remain close to my heart.

Uncle Tom may you rest in peace as you make your journey above the clouds with the angels above. We have shared so much laughter together from fishing, crabbing with chicken and a string , teaching me to drive with a boat attached to the back of the car, tinkering in the basement while listening to stories from days past about my mom growing up and grandma and grandpa Markowski. I cherished every moment and thank you for your unconditional love that you have showed me while growing up. I will miss the tradional pictures on the projector during our Thanksgiving dinners.
I know Aunt Theresa, Uncle John, Ed, Joey and Stashu(Stanley) along with Grandma and Grandpa are by your side. I will never for you. Your loving nephew.
