Tom was a great lawyer and a truly nice human being. He really knew and studied the law, and was willing to help other attorneys understand some of its complexities. We will miss him. I will keep him in my prayers. Bob Hensler

Dear Polaski Family,
The 23rd Psalms gives refreshing words for us all. I do hope you find this Psalms comforting at such a time like this.
I knew you for such a short time, but I'll never forget you.

Rest in Peace Tom. Everyone will remember you as a sincere and kind person who was a gentleman who lived to help his clients. You loved the law, and defending those who needed your legal representation.
I'll think of you whenever I play 60's music in the car.
