Thomas P. McSharry Jr.

I am a friend and neighbor of Tom, Kathleen and Mikaela.. They added so much to our little neighborhood and with Tom's passing it has been really hard to keep the faith. I know that we all feel helpless to help Kathleen and Mikaela and his family. Tom would expect nothing less than his friends and family to continue on enjoying life and each other. I will keep them in my hearts always and remember that he was as wonderful inside as he looked on the outside.. We should all take a lesson from...

My deepest sympathy to the McSharry family, his wife, his little daughter and all his friends. I knew Tommy only a little bit, having been friends more with his sisters, having to gone to school with them, than with him. But the little I did know about him was all good. I was deeply saddened to find out about Tom's passing, and my thoughts and prayers are with his whole family during these sad days. I wanted to let the family know that I am in the process of becoming a bone marrow donor. I...

To Kathleen, Michaela, The McSharrys and the Ahearns-

I just now heard the news from my mother, I had to go on here to see if it was really true. I am so sorry for your loss, words cannot describe how I feel. I hope that in the difficult time ahead, you are able to find strength in family and friends. God bless!

To the McSharry Family,
I worked with Tom for the past 2 years, and not only was he a consumate (and damn smart & gifted) professional, but even more so a dedicated and loving husband and father. I fondly remember one of our business trips together when he excused himself from dinner during a fairly inopportune time and lively discussion. When asked by the client if it could wait for a minute, Tom politely said no and that this was the most important time of his day. He had to call...

It was many years ago that I worked with Tom at HBS. I have fond memories of him. My condolences to his family and friends.

Kathleen:
Words cannot express how deeply I feel for you and Mikaela - I am so very sorry I was not here to attend the wake and funeral - I am so happy that you and Tom had the wonderful years you had together. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Mikaela and the entire family, please take heart in knowing that you have a wonderful, loving and very extended support system. I hope you consider me part of that group. My love and heartfelt prayers to my other baby sister. Kathy Condon

Dear Kathleen, Mikaela, and family:
Tom worked for me at CRD. We offer our deepest condolences to you and his friends. Tom was truly one of our best as a worker and a friend. He worked tirelessly and with great commitment. Tom was highly respected by the people he worked with, unselfishly helping all who needed it. Tom's generous personality and presence will be greatly and sadly missed in the office; his memory will remain with us.

More Than This

I could feel at the time
there was no way of knowing
fallen leaves in the night
who can say where they're blowing
as free as the wind
and hopefully learning
why the sea on the tide
has no way of turning

more than this- you know there's nothing
more than this- tell me one thing
more than this- there's nothing

it was fun for a while
there was no way of knowing
...

To Mary, Maggie and family: Although we only met Tom once, it is obvious he was a great person because you are such wonderful people. You are in our thoughts and prayers during this time. Your neighbors on Artwill Street.
