Not sure what to say?

I have many fond memories of Father Thomas Tivy when he was in residence at the rectory of St. Hilary Church. He was popular with all of the students and maintained a full schedule at the church in addition to his working for the Archdiocese in the Chancery office. Later, he was made the pastor of Our Lady of Grace parish. "Well done, good and faithful servant..."

Please accept my prayers and condolences on the passing of your brother.

The Biggy/Tivy family were neighbors of my grandparents on Spaulding Avenue in Our Lady of Mercy Parish. Tom said my wedding Mass, then 25 years later....my son's wedding Mass. His mother, Mary , is waiting for him in Heaven. Blessings and Peace to Jerry.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

A wonderful and kind man. May his family find & be comforted by the same peace he provided those of us he cared and served during our times of need. His memory will always be of wisdom, kindness, good humor and love. May he Rest In Peace. The Costello family

God has taken another Great Person from us. I just wanted to let Fr Jerry know that, if it wasn't for your brother, I would not be writing this. He saved me from the hell I was living in and let me know that I was worth it. TRULY A GODSEND.

To a Wonderful Man, You meant so much to so many.RIP Father....
