Thomas J. Epperly

So sad to hear of his passing. I was Tom's roommate ...6-301 Territorial Hall University of Minnesota. Tom actually had the highest batting average for the Gophers one year as I recall. What a happy, positive person.

Dear Cressy and family,

My thoughts and prayers are with you. I taught with Tom for many years at Guardian Angels. He was a very caring teacher, and he had a wonderful smile. He will be greatly missed.

Sincerely, Sue Wutchiett

He is now with our Lord and his journey in heaven has begun...Praise to you God..please anjoy the company of Mr. Epperly..he will be missed, but we will see him one day in Heaven.

Colleen - I was saddened to see that your father passed away last week. I enjoyed talking with you while we waited for Elle and Bridget to finish ballet class. I admired your fierce dedication to your father and family during the past months. I hope you find peace. Take Care - Erin Lisle (Bridget's mom)

Cressy,Courtney,Colleen & Steve,

This is the first funeral mass that we have been at that the priest (Fr. Jarvis), was so involed with the participant's. What a beautiful send-off.

We just want to say, what a wonderful day. And the beauty of the mass will be in our hearts forever.

I felt so sad when I read of Tom's passing in the Tribune today. I knew him during the years when he was doing home improvement. We took our customers to a Twins game and Tom was one of those who attended the event. I jokingly told him I wanted to sit next to him because I wanted a baseball. He caught a foul ball and dropped it in my lap. I still have that baseball and have told the story often. He was slways such a great guy. My sincere sympathy.

Mrs. Epperly, Colleen and Courtney,
I was so very saddened to hear about the loss of a wonderful man. Please know that you are in my daily prayers.

Mr E,
I was so shocked to read of your passing. Colleen did such a wonderful job keeping people updated on your caring bridge. What a great daughter you have. You were a great teacher to all and will be missed but remembered always. I know you will look down upon your family and friends and know that they will be here...

I will miss the smile that lights up a room and the confidence that made the world feel okay. My prayers are with all of you. I know that he is smiling upon us. I am sorry that I could not be there to hug all my cousins. My Love to you all. Deb Michel McFerron
(from one of those cousins related on both sides of the family, sending out lots of hugs from Oregon)

Cressy and Family, I was so sorry to hear of Tom's death. All of you will be in my prayers and the prayers of the students at St. Vincent de Paul School.
