Thomas Joseph Boertman

Missing you Tom,......

Rosemary, Your loss is overwhelming and it's very hard to believe. The love you and Tom had for each other was a model and inspiration to all. I will always remember and cherish our 20+ years of friendship and laughter (retreats, Super Bowls, San Diego, desserts, etc. etc.) Tom will live forever in our hearts. I can't express my sadness and pain for your loss. God be with you,
Anne

Boertman Family, we are so sorry to hear about Tom. While I haven't seen you personally for some time my parents have kept me up to date with the family. (although it seems like only yesterday I was babysitting a baby Dustin and Alyssa!). Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time and we hope that all of your warm and wonderful memories of Tom will help ease some of the pain. Pam & Sandy Davison

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of Tom's loved ones, both in Arizona and Michigan.

I remember Tom as a young man, about 19, helping my dad on his bread route one summer. I would wait for them to come home, which usually wasn't till 8pm. My mom would make dinner for both of them, and I would wait outside, by Tom's motorcycle, till he came out and started it up. He was bigger than life to me. I will always remember him that way.

Tom was my cousin and it's been far too many years since I've last seen him but he was part of my family and my heart goes out to him and to all those he left behind. It's hard to find adequate words at a time such as this but my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dear Rosemary

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this sudden tragedy. Please accept this prayer taken from Marianne Williamson's "Illuminata":

Dear God,
Please take the soul and spirit of this dear departed one into the sweetest corner of your mind, the most tender place in your heart, that he, and I, might be comforted.

For now he has gone, and I pray, dear God, for the strength to remember he has not gone far. For...

My love and prayers are with you Rosemary, Alyssa, Dustin and Brianna. You are all in my thoughts.

We were incredibly shocked and saddened to hear of the passing of our friend Tom Boertman. It is apparent from reading his obituary the number and quality of his contributions to the Scottsdale
Community, a Community that he loved dearly.
His extraordinary devotion to his wife Rosemary, and his children
go far to set an example for all of us.
Tom will be sorely missed by this family, particularly his warm laugh
and fine sense of humour.

To the Boertman Family,

I am so sorry to about the passing of Tom. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

With Sympathy,
