Not sure what to say?

Tom was a man of conviction, generosity and good humor. I still miss him greatly.

Tom recruited me to work for him in early 2000s at Chuck E Cheese. Lynne would come and plant flowers around the building sometimes. Tom was an amazing human being that I continue to speak of today. He was the first person to in the working world to believe and inspire me and has positively impacted my life forever. I will never for get the lessons I learned and the peace I felt working for Tom. You will be missed forever.

Our hearts go out to the Maginnis family. Our kids attended school together, and we all admired both Tom and Lynn for their deep devotion to their family. They also contributed so much energy to the Lake Oswego schools, and were very active in supporting our community. Their wonderful children are evidence of what great parents they were. Please know that we share your grief, and have you in our thoughts.

I went to school with Tom at St. Charles, but a couple of other things in his obit caught my eye. The first was his birthday and where he was born. I was born at St. Vicent's on July 9th and the second was his picture sitting in a Beechcraft airplane. We also fly, and have had a beech for the past 30 years. I would have enjoyed talking with him about his aviation experiences. I can now only pray for Blue Sky's for him until we meet again.

The news of his passing saddened us all.
Wishing condolences from our family to yours.

I met Tom at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan. He had a lovely inviting smile and was easy to talk to. We would talk about our daughters because the had the same name. He was proud of his family. I am glad to have known him. My deepest condolences and sympathies.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

We met Tom through our son Chris he was a schoolmate of Tom's son Conner. Tom was a great person. Volunteered time to the school, he and Lynn's Chuck E. Cheese for a soccer party and we walked together for a trick or treat excursion with the boys once or twice. We lost touch as the boys got older, but both Tom and Lynn are missed.
