I recently met Tom at work, and he was always so kind and an absolute professional. I loved getting him to crack a smile or laugh. Tom seemed like the kind of man that would give the shirt off his back to someone in need. He will be missed by so many. My sympathy and prayers go out to his family. Rest in peace.

As a coworker of Tom I was always very impressive with his work ethic and technical ability, but more impressive was his willingness to do anything he was asked to do with energy and a smile. He will be profoundly missed! My prayers and deepest sympathy to his family.

I worked with Tom for several years. He was a quiet, soft spoken, dedicated, hard working co-worker. Always a gentleman-always a smile. We will certainly miss him. My sympathy and prayers for comfort and strength go out to his family.
