Not sure what to say?

I'm not sure what to say. I'm Tom's niece, Mary (his brother Jack's daughter). My dad and Tom were never very close. It sounds like my dad was very different from his brother. I have a few memories of Uncle Tom from my childhood. He was gregarious and I remember him telling funny stories all the time. And that he did fly in from Louisiana when my dad died in 1999 and was not in the best if health at the time, he made the effort and was delightful and it was very appreciated. I'm sorry that my...

Aunt Debbie, I wish there was something that could be said to take away the sadness you and the boys are feeling at this moment. My sisters and I have not seen you two in so many years, but you have always been in our thoughts. Matter of fact, we watched a video of all of us on your boat years ago. (Before it sank!) That is the Uncle Tom that we have chosen to remember. The laughing, happily in love, and quite younger Tom! You are in our prayers always.

Tom was Jerry's best man for our wedding as Jerry was for Debbie and Tom! I can't imagine those kind bright and shiny Irish eyes not glowing from up above! I sincerely hope that you find peace with the end of his time here but understand that this is his beginning! May God Bless you and your family and keep you in his care. Love Charlene and Jerry Murray

You will be greatly missed !!!!

We all feel the loss of our Tom Fenton,(Tommy as I called him). The calendar would state he was an elder senior citizen...but anyone who had the privilege to know him, would say he was younger and more optimistic than most half his age !!! He always planned for the future...and would make time for a good joke. Heaven has gained a great optimistic soul....but he will always be in our hearts !!!!
