Thomas Andrew "Tad" Day

Happy Birthday, my friend.

Happy Birthday, Tad. I'm grateful I knew you in this life, and that I can still recall your voice and signature laugh. You're forever in my heart.

Hi Tad, I have been having lots of moments lately, more then usual. I feel you around me and know you are watching out for me. As you know, Elizabeth will grad in May, more honors then she knows what to do with. Steve has stepped in for you, just through emotional support. Not sure this will post or be printed, don't care. You aren't here physically. Emotionally, in spirit, in the dark and light, everyday work, I feel you. You are our "Tadgy Wadge" and always will be, more...

I only recently learned of Tad's death, but he and I were neighbors and best friends in the late 60s and early 70s. My condolences to his family. Tad was a great kid and surely a great adult as well and I'm sure he is sorely missed.

We never knew Tom as Tad, but the Tom we knew was a kind soul who was a joy to be around. While he may not have always known it, he had some terrific people who always have, and always will, think of him as a dear friend. He was loved and shall be missed. Our sincere sympathies to his family, both immediate and extended. We are proud to have known him and know that you are, too.

Our deepest sympathies to Tom's family whom he spoke of with great fondness. Thank you for helping him be the person he was and sharing him with all of us. God bless.

To the Day family:

Our deepest sympathies on the loss of your wonderful son. Tom was one of the first friends I made when I moved to Phoenix, and he will always hold special memories for Rob and me.

I would like to extend my deepest sympathies. I know there are just no words that can provide comfort. Tad was a wonderful, funny man who always went out of his way to make people smile. The world is a better place just having him here, even if it was for such a short time. May peace and love be with you during this difficult time.

For the Day Family,

It was a great shock to hear of Tom's illness and passing. I came to know him through his work at AIDS Project Arizona and I will always remember his caring spirit and easy smile.
