I just have heard of Tom's passing. I am saddened to hear of this news. I worked with Ted as his secretary, and Tom was there daily helping out. He always made me laugh. I will truly miss him. My prayers and thoughts are with his family and friends.

Sorry to hear about my Uncle Jim's brother dying this week. I have many nice memories of Tom. He was the one that first taught me how to play baseball in the field next to their house on the corner of Hawley Road and Wells back in the 1950's.

Jeff, Ted, John, Diane and Kris, I loved your dad's humor, too. Bea, take care and enjoy the great memories of such a great husband, father and person.

My thoughts and prayers are with the entire extended Koconis clan as I fondly remember Tom's presence, fun-loving attitude and competitive spirit. Tom was a truly unique individual and although I knew him many years ago, his joie de vivre has stayed with me throughout my adult years.

Above all was his love for his family and friends and his memory will live on within all of us.
