Not sure what to say?

Thomas Dunne was an amazing man. His was the kindest, most loving, generous man I have ever met. He was a great friend and mentor. Every day I remember his laugh and smile. The times I spent with Thomas are some of my greatest memories. Thomas loved life and showed kindness to everyone he met. I am lucky to have known him and he is in my thoughts every day.

Hi Tom,
Mom and I will miss you greatly. You always shared a kind and cheerful word no matter how severe the problems you were facing at the time. You were very kind to mom and always took her to the cemetery to "visit" my dad after he passed away, bringing an armload of flowers to commemorate his life and your friendship. We will miss our holiday exchanges and all the beautiful years of friendship, and remember you always.

Dear Tom,
Chuck and I are both going to miss you dearly. You were one of the first men at the 141st reunion to come up and greet us. Even though we came by ourselves, without my dad, who had already gone on to "The Great Reunion Hall in the sky", you made us feel welcome. We will continue to go to the reunion for Dad, and now for you Tom, and all those who went before you.We learned a lot from you Tom, about the war, and things to laugh about. God is lucky to have you in his kingdom....

Tom exemplified the good in mankind. He gave so much of himself to the people who knew him.
Tom was kind, giving, generous and hard working always thinking of others before he thought of himself. He served his country well during WWII and the 36 Division Association and 141 Regiment Association. Tom was respected by all who knew him. His dedication to service was remarkable.
I will miss Tom's great sense of humor and his pearly words of wisdom. He will always remain in the hearts...

Austin Reunion 2015

I will remember Tom with nothing but kindness and love - that is what Tom exhibited every day of his life. Always a kind word, smile, hand shake or hug. A true hero. The 36th reunions will never be the same. God speed.

A dear friend, who gave so much of himself; touching the lives of so many over the years. Tom provided encouragement, guidance, support, and genuine love. Every year when Tom decorated Greenberg Hall SCII for the Christmas Holidays (with help from many), everyone celebrated the joyous season with him. A devoted friend who lives on in our hearts.

Wishing you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your hearts.
