Lois, Celia and family
I feel blessed to have known Tom. He was a great man who cared deeply and gave so much.
He inspired me in many ways. I loved his stories and sense of humor. I loved the friendship he and my dad had for many years.
May all the happy memories and his legacy of love, faith, hope and charity make his passing less painful.
Gold Bless You

At a time like this one reflects on the wonderful times the Whites and the Foleys enjoyed together in Boston--from weekend skating at the B.C. rink to the annual bus ride at Christmas to see the lights around town and Santa at Jordan Marsh. Tom was a major factor as we built the gym at the Country Day School in Newton. We reminisced last winter in Jupiter--and we were both glad to be together again. We Foleys admired him and his great work in helping others. We will miss him--we loved him. He was a special friend. May God Bless him in eternity.

I loved him like a father. God has received a great champion, may he keep him in the palm of his hand.Vinny Piro and Family

While we knew our beloved Tom was slipping away from us, his loss has left a deep and penetrating absence. May he be among the saints and martyrs of heaven--ever the compassionate advocate to the poor, marginalized and lonely.
