Thomas Ornoski Obituary
Tom joined the US Marine Corps directly out of High School and was a dedicated Marine before having to retire with an honorable medical discharge. Tom was an avid Atlanta Braves fan and was very passionate about baseball even to the point of coaching his oldest son's little league team.

Left to cherish his memory are his parents David and Levina Ornoski, his adoring little sister Jennifer Ornoski, wife Ashley Ornoski and two beautiful boys Kyler and Kamden Ornoski. He was preceded in death by his loving Grandparents Kenneth and Jenny McCarty.

Tom and I met on the yellow footprints of Parris Island. We went on to have some adventures over the next 4 years, then our military careers went in different directions. He has stayed with me through stories over the last 20 years, and and now he's going to stay with all of in spirit for the rest of them.

I met Tom in 2016 after moving next to him and his family. He came to work with me a few months at a small auto body repair shop. We had many great conversations on that 40 minute drive to work and back home. Tom was an old soul and a great listener. He will be greatly missed. Thank you Tom for your service to our country.

Tom was the candle in the wind. Just like Elton John sang about. We had so many great memories the last seven months of his life. I will forever thank The Lord for showing Tom the way back home. Tom will be missed every single day! His passion for his purpose for God was truely fueling him the last 6 weeks of his life. Peace be with you my dear friend.
