Thomas Paul Amendol

There are lots of stories to choose from so I´ll go with my favourite one that I hold close to my heart. It was Christmas time and 2022 and Tom made a point to get with me after I got off work for the sole purpose of finding me a Christmas tree for my room. I remember when we left the laundry room, headed to the back of the property, he said where is your coat at you need to put it on you´re gonna get cold.
We went through several rooms until we found a pre-lit Christmas tree. The whole tree was a little too big and so we decided to just take the top of it, which meant it didn´t have a stand. And so we took this little tree back to the laundry room and plugged it in and all the lights worked and now it was time to go collect materials so that he could make a stand. So I followed him around the property and was standing beside him when he built it. He let me have some ornaments and I took it down to my room and made a place for it and decorated it . And just because he took the time to do all those things to showed he cared about me is priceless, and that´s why it was the best little tree I ever had .

Tom I just learned of your passing tonight. I will miss you in so many memories of our youth. I pray peace on your sisters Karen Tina your twin. and Marianne. I pray healing for your entire family. I will never forget the open arm hug that you gave me at your brother's Steve's passing. Rest in peace my friend. Todd Hartman
