Judy and the entire Gilbride family, Our hearts are heavy at hearing of the loss of Tom. Tom will certainly be missed. Every time we hear "Lord of the Dance", we will always remember him. Some of our families best times were with you, Tom, Colleen and Brian at McPartlan's South. Many St. Patrick's Day celebrations and even filling in with the Bog Devil's in the back room will be how we remember Tom.....he was a very special person. Your family will always be in our prayers. God Bless your family and may peace be with you at this trying time.

January 21, 2011

Dear Judy, Sorry to hear about Tom. I remember him and you well from all the times the Willcox clan went to either the Cloverbank and you were there or when we would stop at the two McPartlan locations. The two of you always made our family feel welcomed. He will be remembered fondly by all who knew him and I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. I pray that my Mom and Dad welcome him up in heaven. Take care of each other and know that he is at peace.

Judy, Bud, Terry, Colleen and Brian-
I cannot express enough how sorry I am to hear of Tom's passing. I will always remember the experiences I had working at McPartlan's South in Blasdell as a young lad and then at the Lackawanna location when I returned from the service. I remember how our families become close during those years and all of the great parties and trips and gatherings we all enjoyed. A truly fun and cherished time in my life. May you also look back on those times and others when you remember Tom. I hope that it will somehow ease your pain. He was such a fun guy and I'm sure that he and Kenny are now having one together in heaven. What a St. Patty's Day they'll have up there this year!!!!

To all the Gilbrides...I am so sorry for all of you and I am sorry that I will not be in town for the funeral on Saturday. I am on vacation until Sunday.
I will offer Mass for Tom tomorrow afternoon.
Also, I want you to know that I had a very nice visit with him two weeks ago in Mercy Hospital. He made me smile! My own Mom died on the same day 7 years ago. Father Art Smith, Pastor, St. Mary of the Lake, Hamburg, NY

Judy, Buddy, Terry, Colleen, Brian, I cant begin to express the respect I had for Tom. He took a chance on me and gave me my first real job. The things I learned from him have helped me succeed in life both professionally and personally. As you know, we connected again later in his life as his health declined. It was a honor for me and my fire company to help him when he needed help. No matter how much pain he was in he always had a smile and a joke for me. He will never be forgotten. RIP Tom.
