Not sure what to say?

We are heartbroken to learn of Tom's passing. We literally just found out, as we weren't notified. We were worried about him and started making calls...

Tom was a dear friend to my husband, Jim Sipes (PGA). He has visited our home many times, was a frequent member our football pool, and such a great man. We will truly miss him.

As a cousin and friend of the McCarthy family, several memories of Tom leap out at me. When he was about 4 years old I was babysitting for the McCarthy children and Tom jumped off of a picnic table. Then he proudly proclaimed that his dad had told him that girls weren't able to to that, only boys could. Of course I had no choice but to jump off the table and have his older sister, Mary Pat, jump off. Tom was stunned and I told him to be sure to tell his dad.

Years later with the...

Always loved Tom. Such a good man. We grew up in the golf industry together in the Philadelphia area. Tom always took great care of me and my members on our winter vacations to Naples. He was so much fun. Loved Tom. An ace and true professional.

Dear Bev & Pat
So sorry we cannot attend the mass celebration of Tom's life. Last night Don & I got the flu. Accept our sympathies & prayers. May you & your family find strength during this difficult time.
Fondly, Don & Sandy Wilde

The McCarthy's were childhood friends of our family, when we all lived on Plainfield Avenue. Tommy, you look just as sweet and lovable now, as you were as a child! My deepest sympathy to Mr. & Mrs. McCarthy and Mary, Margaret, Jane, Kate, Elizabeth, Jim and your families. Also sending my deepest sympathy to Tom's wife and family. It is never easy losing a loved one, but I do believe that Tom is in a better place. May God wrap his loving arms around all of you, and help you through this most...

I enjoyed working with Tom at Esplanade. He was always friendly and outgoing. He often brightened my day while there. You will be missed.

Tom was one of a kind- he was the best boss I ever had and he touched so many lives. We had the greatest times at Bonita Bay and he helped so many of us in our careers. I have been in touch with many of our staff from our days at Bonita Bay and we all want to pass along our sincerest sympathies to the McCarthy family- we will miss you Tommy and thanks for all the great lessons you taught me

I know Tom only a short time but he always had a smile and time to give advice at Golfsmith. He truly loved golf and shared that enthusiasm with all.

I must say that Tom was an exceptional person that always had nothing but compliments for his fellow man. I have only known him for a few months, but his warmth as a human being will be with me forever!
May God Bless you Tom
