Thomas H. "Tom" Block

I recently came across this picture from when I worked at the Journal and sat next to Tom for over 5 years. I decided to look him up and am so sorry to hear of his passing. Tom and I chatted almost everyday while we sat at our drawing boards. He was always a pleasure to be around, fun to talk to and would often talk about his family. I hope you don't mind that I uploaded the photo. It's pretty silly. It was Hawaiian shirt day at work. You can see Tom kneeling in front. I'm leaning against the...

Leslie....noted your dad's passing in the JS Online. I have such fond memories of both of your parents from the "old days" at Our Lady of Good Hope. Hope both you and your family are well. Please accept my most sincere sympathy in your great loss. Fondly, Julie Brandl Mross

Dave and I are so sorry we were unable to attend the services, but our thoughts and prayers were with you all. I have the fondest memories of my Uncle Tom talking with my father about their lives as brothers. I saw/heard the very special love they had for each other, and gave to us all. We are blessed they were our parents. God bless you all. Love, Suzanne Block and Dave Gooding

I am sorry to hear about your Dad's passing. May he rest in peace.

Leslie & Family, My prayers are with you in the passing of your Father, I have lots of fond memories but one that will always stick out is his Christmas pants as my son has now seemed to carry on that same tradition of wearing some quite similar. Keep the memories in your hearts and he will be with you till you meet again.

Leslie and Jon, we are so sorry to hear of the loss of your father. He sounded like an amazing person. I am sure he was so very proud of your beautiful family. Praying the peace of Christ to be with you in your grief. In His Love, Shelly and Tom Horner. Philippians 1:3

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. So sorry for your loss.

So enjoyed Tom's happy face at the dinner table, the short time I knew him. He will be happy now in Heaven. Mike and Bobbi Glembocki
