Not sure what to say?

I have never met anyone as generous and genuine as Tom. The days will suffer and seem that much heavier for his loss... at least until you remember Tom again and hold him in your heart.

There really aren't many memories of my childhood without my buddy Tom Hartley in them. Summers were spent outside and unsupervised from morning til dark. Building forts and tree houses. Hockey in the street. Pembryn pool. Kick the can, Bloody Mary, 500. Football, stickball, even the Winter Olympics. Getting thrown out of dorney park for an hour while with the youth group. Camping in the back yard. Walking all the way to the willow grove park mall. Hanging out in the comic book store on...

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal. Love leaves a memory no one can steal. Rest In Peace Tom. The O'Mullans

Tom was a smart gifted young man. Tom had many faceted understandings and skills. His focus and attention to detail was outstanding. Tom was demanding of excellence and for me still a joy to work with.
It was my hope that Tom would be working with me again someday.
My heart goes out to all of Tom's family and friends.
It's thru faith that I know Tom is now at Peace.

Dear Bobbie and family: We are saddened to learn of the loss of Tommy. It is tragic to lose a loved one but know that time heals a broken soul. Our hearts and prayers are with you during this sad time. Deepest Sympathy, DeAnn (Seymour), Nick, Stratis and Socrates Varunes

Tom worked for me at Russell Roofing,I have to say he was one of the most skilled guys I've ever met.Tom made me look good with his expert craftsmanship, you never had to worry if the job was done right.He was also a great teacher for the young kids coming along.He helped me out when I was first learning to play guitar. He took a cheap Epiphone guitar I had and turned it into a Les Paul . So sorry to hear of his passing. So so much to offer.

Sorry for your loss

Tom was such a bright and kind person. He was very passionate about so many things. His energy was infectious and I will always think of him smiling and talking about something he loved. He leaves behind many friends with heavy hearts, further saddened by such an unexpected and untimely loss. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, who I know he adored, during this dark and sad time.
