Dear All,
I was a friend of Tom's from Pratt and Whitney. We worked together for many years,especially in North Haven. He use to be my money advisor and talked me into using a Medical Spending account, which I still do to this day. I was sad to hear of his passing. He was a great man and a good friend.

Aaron and family,
We are so sorry to hear about your loss. Thomas was a gentle man with a heart of gold. He would help anyone out in a minute, I worked with him at PW North Haven and EH. He was very well loved and appreciated within his PW family and friends. Tom had a great love for his fellow friends. He worked on many of my safety committees and was a co-chair for some of them. I can always count on Tom to hold and follow through with any meeting or task. He loved his family and you can always see him at the Meriden Rod and Gun club with Tarra. That dog truly loved him. My heart goes out to all of you,
