Not sure what to say?

Good friend good guy and roommate at the trailer in Chevy chase -IUP- lot of fun with Pat Reg and myself that year. Always a steady solid guy and great athlete

I played baseball with Tom at IUP in 1971 and went to the College World series with him. He was a great pitcher and competitor. Above all he was a great guy and fun to be around. He reached out to me, since I was the Captain of the team , and he wanted me to tell his team mates about his physical condition, which I did. Condolences to the family. Captain Spodi Odi, Pete Larioni.

Saddened to hear about the loss of a fellow coworker and a great gentleman! Condolences to Claudia and Toms family and dearest friends. You will be missed my friend but not forgotten!

It was with a heavy heart that I received the news from Stacey Fink, our mutual friend. Little did I know that when we along with Greg Herr would see Tom at breakfast for the last time. We were all baseball pals and Tom was a most reliable pitcher for the Schaefferstown Barons. Tom was unassuming, quiet and the perfect teammate. My utmost regards to his wife and family. C.S.Lewis said it best: It is not goodbye, but so long, see you later. I Thessilonians 4:13-18

Only reconnected with Tom this summer when we had lunch with some old Shafferstown Baron baseball boys. It was good to see Tom. But only then to hear that he was not well. RIP Tom

Tom and I grew up in Hershey and played hockey and baseball together. He was a fierce competitor on the ice and on the field, but a better friend. I hope he is going for a hat trick on the ice or throwing a perfect game with the angels. I will miss him. Stacey Fink

One of the Greatest Men I have ever known. Very much Respected and Admired. May God Bless His Soul and May God Bless His Family and Friends.

I was fortunate to be a high school teammate and friend of Tom - just a first class guy. Rest in peace my friend.

My condolences to Toms family. I knew Tom from hunting in Clinton County at Myles and Rich's cabin. What a great person he was.
