Not sure what to say?

Tom was a client, confidant, friend and all around great person. He was truly loved in the Chicago Financial community. Despite his success, he never forgot his Jersey City and Hudson Catholic roots. Joyce he adored you, Michael and Catherine. My heart is saddened for your loss. May the Lord help you through this difficult time

Joyce and family -

I wanted to convey my deepest sympathy at Tom's passing. I had the privilege of working with Tom during his Little Harbor days and we remained friends thereafter. He was as classy and professional a person as I've encountered in this business, and I'm better for having known him.

I never had the pleasure of meeting you or the kids, Joyce, but I can assure you that Tom and I happily bored each other with personal updates - he was a proud and loving father...

Joyce, We were shocked to find out about Tom's death. I can't imagine your loss. PLease know that we are thinking about you, Michael and Catherine and will keep you all in our prayers.

I sat behind Tom at the stadium for 31 years. He never missed shaking my hand around the Marine Corps birthday. He leaves after another super bowl victory and I remember how he hated the third and long draw play. I'll certainly miss him. John T ........section 337 row 26

Tom was a client who became one of my closest friends, I turned to him for advise when I was down and visa versa. I will miss his storys and his crooked smile. Every time I spoke with him, he updated me about Blondie (Joyce) and how much he loved her and the kids.

Joyce and family: My heart goes out to you in this difficult time. Tommy was truly a great man.

He made the world a better place

Sorry for your loss,Tom was a friend we share good times at the Giant games for about 5-6 years,i saw Tom at gatherings for the last few years and we talked often when we met.I just found out of his passing today and was sorry i could not say good bye in a better way.God be with you ...Johnny O'

At Hudson Catholic, Tom was a spitfire, an Irish sparkplug with curls, freckles, and the devil's grin! Good humor and a great guy, I can only say that all in his family must now be in understandable, great sorrow, and I hope than your pain will leave...and only your memories of a wonderful, terrific young man, husband, father, & brother will remain. May the Lord cause you to truly feel His peace.
Sincerely,
Charlie Markey
