Thomas Adams Rothschild

Of Newton died at home with his family on Friday, January 19, 2007, at the age of 64. Tom was born in New York City, March 13 1942. Son of Ann Hatfield and V. Henry Rothschild II, he came to Boston in his early twenties. Newton was his primary address; however, his spiritual home was Chebeague Island, Maine where he spent every spring through fall, since his childhood. He was most at home sailing in his beloved Lyra around Casco Bay with family and friends. He was a loving father who revered and delighted in his children. He leaves his son Luke Adams Rothschild and daughter-in-law Holly of Venice, CA; and Luke's mother Faxon Green of Cambridge; his sons Adam Rothschild of San Francisco and Sam Rothschild of Allston; and their mother Peggy Rothschild of Newton. He also leaves brother Henry of Santa Fe. He is and will be dearly missed.
