Thomas Maher Obituary
Endicott - Thomas "Tom" Edward Maher left us unexpectedly and peacefully on Sunday July 12, 2020 at the age of 71. He was born on March 14, 1949, the son of Richard and Evelyn Maher.
He was survived by his loving wife Clorina "Sis" to whom they recently celebrated 50 years of marriage. He was also survived by his son Dwain Maher of Vestal NY and his daughter Michelle Ingraham of Endicott. He was a proud grandfather to Quinlan, Matthew, Alissa, Kennedy and McKenna.
Tom had many passions in his life but there was nothing greater than the love for his family, for which he was very proud to be a loving, caring Husband, Father, and Pop. He was a devoted and passionate Philadelphia sports Phanatic who proudly displayed his energy for his hometown teams. He was a long-time dedicated employee for the Marriott and Chuck E. Cheese corporations and his love for children lead him to the Union-Endicott School District as a bus driver for the last 10 years.
Please join us for a memorial service to celebrate his life on Monday, July 20, 2020, starting at 1 PM at Coleman & Daniels Funeral Home, 300 E. Main St., Endicott.
In lieu of flowers, the family would love donations to create a scholarship for a 2021 U-E graduate.

Tom was a very close friend to me. Him being my neighbor and bus driver made us get close. Everyday i would visit him and his wife and we would garden together, pick tomatoes and just talk for hours on end. He was really my best friend and impacted my life that words cant explain.

Tom was an amazing manager who was always more concerned with the employees than the bottom line. I will always remember and be grateful to him for the two times he stood up for me at CEC. He was always in a good mood with a smile on his face and I loved working with him. RIP Tom

My heart is so broken. Mr. Tom was such an amazing man. He was so happy to see Aiden and Ashlynn every morning on the bus as they were to see him. Thank you for being a big part in our lives, you were more than just our bus driver, you were our family and we are very thankful for that. Rest in peace my friend. You were taken way to soon.

My heart is so broken! I have never met such a wonderful man who always gave his heart first. He loved seeing my kids everyday on the bus as much as they loved seeing him. He treated them like his own and I can't say enough how wonderful he was. He was our friend first but became family so quickly. He will always, always be in our hearts. Our condolences to all, he has touched the hearts of so many. We will really miss you Mr. Tom!!!

My sincerest condolences to Tom's family. He was a very caring man with a great sense of humor. He always talked of family...especially his beloved grandchildren, and he loved "his" kids on the bus. Tom was a great friend, and will truly be missed!
