Dear Atkins Family,
I worked with Tom for many years, in City Court. When he first discovered his illness, he started working even harder. He wanted to do anything he could, for his family. In fact only one man took more details, Antoine Cain.
It was a beautiful service and Mike Brown was eloquent. Tom will be missed.

Our condolences to the Atkins family.

Always Bouquet - VASE INCLUDED

The public owes Lt. Tom Atkins a debt of gratitude, that they will never be able to repay, for he was the type of man who cared more about others than he did about himself. He unselfishly performed his duties and sacrificed many of his yesterdays so that we could live in peace today. It was a privilege to have served with him. Deputy Chief Paul Donaldson (retired)

Uncle Tom, Im not sure where to begin... Thank you for always bring the smile to any situation, Thank you for your steadfast kindness and understanding. When I think of you I remember all the family functions turned into parties in your backyard playhouse, in the basement playing the pinball machine, or sharing memories over card games at Grandma Betty's. Weather it was giving me that extra push down the waterslide on vacation, or calling at the exact moment I needed it most you always came...

So sorry for your loss.
My thoughts and prayers are with each of you at this time.
He was such a great man! It was wonderful getting to know him over the years. So grateful we got to vacation together!
He will be missed.
Love, Michelle Onyszko
