Not sure what to say?

9 years I can't believe we've made it this long without you and your wit and smile and comfort and security we miss you terribly dad just know we talked to you everyday whether you like it or not hahaha like I said I hope you're hanging out with Mom for sure you too were attached to the hip with pure love you were mom's person and mom was your person

So deeply sadden to see this, and now know Tom has been hanging out in Heaven with my parents and many others for 3 years. Please receive my deepest sympathies on his passing, I had no clue at the time. Time passes but his memory lives on in all of his family, and he was an amazing man, and friend to my family. Blessings to all during this holiday season. I apologize for not seeing this sooner, I bet Tom, KK, Angelo and many others are enjoying their times together again. God bless you...

Almost 2 years later and we still miss you terribly dad but by now you've got everybody sitting around listen to your stories with a big smile on your face

Such a wonderful man here in Sarasota. We are so sorry for you Sophia, and Tia and Stephanie. Tom fought so hard on his cancer, and in many ways now, it is better he has to fight no longer. You are such a wonderful family and such a cute dog he always walked. Our best thoughts to you all

Lindsay and Philip and Alice Bucknell

You will be missed in the neighborhood. We still remember all the times we
would see you walking Chloe around the circle. RIP Tom

I am deeply saddened by Tom's passing. We go back a long way...I had the pleasure of being their children's babysitter way back in the day. I remember my Mom dropping me off or Tom coming to get me to stay at their home while he took Sophia, the love of his life...out for a night on the town...I think I was in 10th grade at Sarasota High then. Sophia and Tom are such special people and their children, too. I will always remember Tom by his effervescent personality, great sense of humor,...

My sincere condolences to Tom's family, this is a perfect picture of his smile and his attitude in life. He will be missed by many friends in addition to his family. I am grateful to have been called a friend. God bless you all.

Sincere condolences to Sophia and Family on Tom's passing. I'm glad I got to know Tom and your family over the years.
