THOMAS JOHN "UNC" COSTA

One of the nicest people I ever met

I will never forget Tommy's kindness. He always had these wonderful summer outside parties that my Mom (Jeanette) and stepfather (Attilio Schiavo)and my children and I attended, as well as all of his family and anyone else who showed up. He made tons of great food and he never thought it was too much for him. We will never forget him - such a wonderful man with such a big heart.

tommy was a great person. my mother was a first cousin and worked for tommy in his catering buisness. i remember only fond memories of him.

I had the pleasure of living next to Tommy and working for him for a few years. He was a kind man who loved to serve others. I figure right about now he and Blue are returning from their morning walk and he is probably getting ready to cater a luncheon or tend to his new courtyard.

To me he was not just an uncle but a very dear friend. There wasn't anything I couldn't talk to him about and always know he would not judge me but offer his kind understanding. He was always very special and will always have a special place in my heart. I will miss him a lot but find peace in knowing he is in a better place now and has rejoined all his family that he loved so much. God please take of this special man. Amen

Tommy was so dedicated to his wonderful dog Queenie and she was as loyal a friend as anyone could have. We pray she will have a loving new home.

Is Queenie taken care of?

Tommy was such a great guy! He catered our wedding many years ago and gave it such a special touch. My husband, John, had so many funny stories about him! I know he will be sorely missed by all who knew him well.
