He leaves in mourning his nieces Karen (Hall) and Alexandra, nephews Thomas (Katie) and Aaron (Jocelyn), as well as grand-nieces and nephews Sara and Sam Osborne and Max, Sal, Pearl and Gil Smyth. Many priceless lifelong friends are also left to mourn this gregarious, romantic soul gone too soon.

Predeceased by his parents Thomas William Osborne (November 9, 1988) and Sheila Alexandra Gilchrist (November 9, 1995), as well as his brother Bill (T.W.O jr.) (March 30, 2013).
