I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Tad. He and his wife, Man, were two my most favorite customers during my time working at Farmington Starbucks. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. May the Lord help you find peace during this time.

I had the privilege of working for this wonderful man as his secretary for two years before he retired from Aetna. Who would have thought that our friendship would have continued way beyond that. We had many a good visit either in Florida or in Connecticut with he and Nan and many laughs!!
I will miss him more than anyone could imagine. He truly was one of a kind and to you Tad, drinking your Starbucks - remember this from our days at Aetna - "out damn spot".

Uncle Tad, I'm so sorry that we didn't have more time together, there was so much I wanted to talk to you about...both Mom and I wish we could have been there for the service, but she can no longer travel, as you know, and I've come down with strep...I wish you well on your journey as you join the ranks of the Eternal Corps...Semper Fi....

I have so many fond memories of Tad and Nan. Tad was a customer/coworker of mine for years. We never lost touch after his retirement from Aetna. We visited in New Hampshire and continued our friendship for many years. I was so looking forward to our next visit following his upcoming birthday. I will hold on to my special memories of this very special man. My loving thoughts and prayers go out to Nan. Tad will be missed but never forgotten.
