Not sure what to say?

I worked with and for Tom from 1969 up thru his retirement from Cooper and Lybrand in the early 1990s. Wonderful leader and businessman. To this day I pass on to my children his statement during tough economic times at Computer Assistance which was to look at expenses and life "is it nice or necessary". I miss him and many of our working partners. Gino Calderone

Dear McDonagh family,
We are so sorry to hear about Tom's passing. What a legacy he leaves behind!! I feel lucky to have had a connection to this fabulous family. The love, laughter, and caring that exists with all of you is a testament to foundation he and Gloria created. I miss those of you that I haven't seen recently as you were all such a part of my growing up. My thoughts and best wishes are with you. All our love,
Jane and Mike Morris

I'm sorry to hear of Uncle Tom's passing. I last saw Tommy and Gloria at my mom's funeral and am glad to here that he will eventually be buried along side her and family at Chapel Point.
I have fond memories of him and his family when I was a kid. I remember hearing that he would occasionally drive wearing a gorilla mask and when he pulled up to a traffic light he would get some pretty funny looks.
I extend my condolences and love to his family.

We are saddened to have heard about Tom's Passing. He led a noteworthy life. I always enjoyed talking with him because he was such an interesting man. He possessed great insight and perspective on a variety of different subjects. It was obvious that he was also a very good listener. I remember several years ago speaking with him about my company and the business challenges which we with facing. He had many great questions and observations. He was also quite humorous! I enjoyed our...

My Grandfather was one of the best people i'll ever know... As expected we are all sad and heartbroken but we all knew he was earthbound just to be fitted for his wings and is up there watching all of the people who knew and loved his as much as I did. Lets not be sad but grateful for the person who we all knew and loved. My grandfathers body is no longer here but his spirit will live on forever. peace love and happiness

Gloria and Family, We were very sorry to hear of Tom's passing. In 1978 he gave me the opportunity of life time. For thirteen years Tom was a mentor and a friend. I owe much of my business success to what I learned from Tom. I regret deeply that Claire and I can not be there for the Services and extend our sympathies to your entire Family.

I was saddened to learn about the passing of Mr. McDonagh. It's been very many years since I've seen him, but I still have very fond memories of him from when I was just a child and my mother worked for him. I'll always remember him as a very kind and generous person. Even though I was just a kid, I do remember he always had a way of offering positive and helpful advice in such a genuine way. As I got older, I certainly learned to respect his business accomplishments as well. It was truly a...
