Not sure what to say?

One of the finest people I´ve ever known... John Colgan

Tommy was my instructor in the academy. I couldn't of asked for a better person and instructor..most of us were nervous on day one and Tommy made those nerves go away real fast. I climbed the ranks because of Tommy. RIP brother ...too we meet again 93-51

Tom was a friend of my son, John McDonald, while at Nazareth and they enjoyed many fishing trips off the Marine Parkway Bridge. John moved to Oregon for business but was deeply saddened when I told him of his friend's passing this morning. Condolences to all the Santoro family from ours.

A Kingsmen for life. Had the pleasure of attending and graduating Nazareth with Tommy. Years later catching up with him on the job. It was like we were back in HS never missing a beat. We will miss you my friend. Watch over your family as you always did and confort those who continue to suffer. Love you brother God Speed home!!!

RIP Tommy. I just wanted to say thank you for everything. You will never be forgotten.
I know you're watching over us all right now and forever ❤.

Tommy was a wonderful person. Growing up in Brooklyn, he could always be found playing ball with the other guys. Truly a diamond in the ruff! May St. Peter welcome you with open arms...you deserve nothing less. My sincerest sympathy to his family. May he rest in peace.

Rest in the hands of our Lord , Thomas . I never met you but you were always my brother.

Tom was my classmate in the Academy and we commuted together almost every day. It was always my favorite part of the day because I knew he'd have me laughing. I am so sorry for your loss. RIP, My Brother.

Heartbroken that such a good man was taken away from his family too soon. Jackie
