Wonderful memories of having lunch with Tom and my mom , his cousin, at Panera

I worked with Thomas F. Roeser many years ago at Quaker Oaks. He was a kind and considerate person. I volunteered with him in being involved with teaching and motivating children who lived in the housing units between 22nd and 26th street on State Street . I wish there were more Tom Roeser(s) in the world.

My sincerese condolences to Tom's family. I am deeply saddened by Tom's death and more so that I did not learn of it until today, being unable to pay my final respects. Tom impacted my life in ways few others have. I was one of many of Tom's students at Loyola, in an uncertain era where moral relativism was the vogue. Tom never bought that crap...more so Tom was the advocate to do what was right and moral especially where the poor, weak and defenseless were concerned. Tom Roeser was indeed...

Dear Lillian and family, Our prayers are with all of you as you face life without your patriach.
I have known Tom since 1952 when my father Frank Farrington gave him his first job on the St.Cloud,Mn Times. He became a close member of our family and continued to be active in our lives throughout the years.
Dad died last year at 101years old and I am sure Mom and Dad greeted him with open arms in heaven.
"May flights of angels guide thee to thy rest"
Much love and prayers...

To the Roeser family
I worked with Tom while at Quaker Oats. He was a truly gifted man who loved all things politics. I learned so much from him and enjoyed his spot-on commentary. My sincere condolences to you.

I will miss Tom's column each week in The Wanderer. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord. (Mary, Mankato, MN)

I started to listen to Tom when he was on with Ty Wansley after Ed Vrodoliak was kind of taken off the air. That goes back to '95 or '96. For a long time I would listen to Polical Shootout and then I came across his blog. I would put in comments and he always answered me on my personal e-mail. A little over a year ago we met for lunch in the Walnut Room. It was a delightful time. I will miss his e-mails and his blog very much.

To Mrs Roser, his children and grandchildren,...

Requiecas in pace, Tom.

God Bless you dear friend. You will be missed. Tom Fitzgibbon
