Not sure what to say?

Thomas was a classmate of mine at St. Patrick HS in Chicago. We graduated in 1966, and the attached photo is his Senior Portrait photo from the 1966 Shamrock Yearbook. I have read all of the memories about Thomas that others have posted. One person mentioned Thomas being involved in activities at Jefferson Park in Chicago. Another 1966 St. Pat's graduate - Patrick Doran (also deceased) and I played baseball and basketball at Jefferson Park for our JHS years, and I wonder if our team played...

Dear Mahoney Family,

My name is Patrick Barrett. I just found out now that Mr. Mahoney had died. I was a student of his at St. Pat's. I'm very sorry to hear about the loss. He was a really nice man. I'm sorry I didn't find out until now. I hope you and your family will be alright.

Karan:
You and I first met when Tommy, you and I worked at Gingiss Tux Rental in the Loop.I was in Law School at DePaul, and Tommy was an undergrad.

As you know, Tommy's mother Anna Marie and my mother Annabelle were first cousins.
The Thiess's and Mahoney's would get together once a month al least and have great times laughing and eating.

My condolences to you, Eileen. Joe and all the Mahoney's.
I loved Tommy like a brother.

Dear Mahoney Family,
I worked with Tom for 10 years at St. Patrick. He was always very welcoming, especially to new teachers. He was someone who could always point a "rookie" in the right direction. We always joked together about his college graduation class ring, in that it was from 1970, when I was born. We had great laughs together which I will never forget. I wish you all God's peace and hold you in my prayers.

Thanks for all the happy memories, Tom, from working on Guys & Dolls together to sharing a laugh at our doorways during change of classes. You have always been a caring, supportive friend. Enjoy your new life. My sincere condolences Karan, the 2 Joes, & all the Mahoney family. John Wenglinski

Dear Karan and family, So sorry to hear of Tom's passing. Remember fun times at I.C. Athletic meetings. Tom knew how to get the job done. He had a big heart and was always a true gentleman. Our sincere sympathies to all. Carm and Mike Perrone and family

Tom Mahoney...met Tom through my father and what a teacher,friend,and all around family man that you will ever meet...God Speed Tom...and say hello to my old-man and Curtin up there.

When I was young, I remember Tom coming to save us from the local thugs in the locker room at the Jefferson Park gym. I was never so happy to see Joe's brother. Throughout the years, Tom always had time to spend with me when we would meet at Babe's and have a beer. He never criticized; only expressed concern and would laugh a laugh that was unique to himself. I will miss that laugh and all that went with it. Know that Tom is at peace and no one ever dies when they are loved. Thanks for...

Mr. Mahoney was a great man and I feel lucky that I was able to have a class with him. While he did not say much, I had great respect for him. Prayers are with him and his family.
