Thomas Sigafoos Obituary
Thomas W. Sigafoos, 76, of Upper Nazareth Twp., passed away on Thursday, October 3, 2024 at his residence. He was the beloved husband of Kathy Sigafoos (Klotz) to whom he was married to 28 years. Born in Easton, Pa, Thomas was a son of the late Kenneth Sr. and Marie Sigafoos (Davis).
Tom dedicated his life to the family business, Sigafoos Machine Shop - Easton, where he worked as a machinist until retirement.
His passions extended beyond the workshop as Tom found joy in spending time with family, often working on old cars and helping neighbors with their lawn mowers and snowblowers. A Ham Radio enthusiast, he constantly sought new ways to connect with others and lend a helping hand. Along with his wife, Thomas served as a foster parent for many years, providing a safe and loving home for children in need.

I knew the Family well. Went to school with Tom. I used to spend time at their house and Many hours at the shop. Back in the day I repaired cars for a side job. I purchased my parts and had most of my work done at the shop.

57 years ago, I bought a 1957 Chrysler New Yorker, from the back lot of Faust's. He and Mike Haas said, the best Hemi rebuilder in Pennsylvania, is right in Northampton County! The car is still on the road, thanks to Sigafoos Machine Shop! R.I.P.!

Sigafoos family, Deeply sorry to learn of Tom's passing. Worked and pal'd around with him years ago. He tought me things in and out of the Shop. One of which was
"Be good to other people, help and do anything you can for them, it'll make for a better life".
Thank you Brother. You will be missed. Rest in peace.
