Obituary
Send Flowers'Sky Was the Limit'
What made Terry Strada fall fast in love with her husband, Thomas, when they met 20 years ago? "Oh my God, he was the most fun person I ever knew," Mrs. Strada said. "He would take me out, and the sky was the limit. Limos, dinners. I said I liked the Boston Celtics; he flew me to Boston to see them."
Three months after Mr. Strada's death, his wife is still inundated with calls from people eager to reminisce about thrills they experienced, courtesy of Thomas Strada.
"If they went fishing with him, it was the best fishing trip they ever had," Mrs. Strada said. "If they went to the track with him and he won money, he'd share it and make everyone a winner for the night."
Mr. Strada, 41, a bond broker at Cantor Fitzgerald, also ensured that his son, Thomas, 7, and daughter, Kaitlyn, 4, experienced as much exhilaration as they could handle. The family visited Disney World three times since Tommy was born. Just 10 days before his death, Mr. Strada helped the boy catch his first bass.
There is one family member, however, who has missed out on the joy of life with Mr. Strada. He is Justin Thomas, Mr. Strada's third child. He was just four days old on Sept. 11.

I visited the 9/11 Memorial in Manhattan for the first time last week. I took pictures of some of the names so I could look them up later, and Thomas was one of them. I just want to say that even though I live far away in Iowa, that day was very meaningful to me and I care about the people who died and all of the friends and families they left behind. We will never forget them. I'm very sorry for your loss.

I was one of Thomas' teachers at St Dominic HS. I was so saddened when I heard of your loss. I think of him often and remember our trip to NYC with his class. That always reminds me of his wonderful zeal for life, even at that young age, and his sense of humor and amazing smile. Please know that your family is always in my prayers.

I know you would have had something very special planned for Terry's birthday today. You were always giving to others and sharing your awesome personality and loving ways. Happy birthday, Terry! Tom, we think of you fondly often.

I just returned to Orange County, CA after visiting NYC and the 9-1-1 Memorial; I felt myself drawn to a certain area to view the pool...as I leaned forward, deep in thought, I looked downward to say a silent prayer and I saw your name...my last name is Estrada, no relation but a very spiritual connection at that moment...bless you and your family.
