Not sure what to say?

It is hard to believe it has been 10 years. We still miss him. Sending love and prayers.

Gail and I were just talking about Tom yesterday and how much we liked him! He was such a kind and respectful guy and always so sweet to our family!! He is not forgotten.

Hi DeChant Family,
We were so glad we had a chance to see Tom last December while visiting with Hugo in Venice. He was the same old joker and down to earth guy I (Vince( recall) from many years ago at that time. Regrettably, could not make the service, but we were there in spirit and have entered his name in our local service. We pray for your well being after your loss. We will miss Tom.
Sincerely, Vince and Nancy DeMartino

Extending heart felt condolences to Fran and the Dechant family. Missing Tom's genuine and hearty smile and laugh.

I thought a lot of Thomas H and his words of wisdom. One of my favorites was, "if work was fun they would can it an amusement park". He was very giving to his children's friends. I will miss him.

His neighbors here in Venice Fl. will miss him and his kind demeanor. Such a soft spoken and sincere man.

Dear DeChant family,

Tom was so special to our family and always so kind to my mother, Gail. We can't tell you how much we appreciated his generosity--always inviting us when we visited to use his pool and stay with him if we ran out of space at Gail's. ;o) He is dearly missed. He gave us many happy memories to carry us through this difficult time.

Don't hesitate to contact us if we can do anything for y'all--you have Gail's number.

In loving memory,
Ember...
