To my friend and classmate Tommy Sabo.

From our kindergarten play when you were our monsignor to senior year in HS when you played baseball and got to be a representative on Phillipsburg's Town Council - you were always such a part of our class.

Enjoyed your and Sue's company at our High School's Get-Togethers. Will miss you at this year's 55th reunion.

You could always made me laugh. Your had the funniest stories to tell.

Will miss you dear friend.

Love Joan Ellen and Paul

On those too-rare occasions when I saw Tommy, he always radiated kindness, patience and maybe just a bit of mischief. That last quality he could convey wordlessly, with just a look from those expressive eyes of his. Windows to the soul indeed.

As I moved in adulthood and then middle age, some persons and personalities that seemed important or imposing as a child shrank with experience and time. Tom still and always seemed a bit larger-than-life; he had a presence about him that, from my perspective, never waned. I always had the sense that Tommy knew something I didn't, that maybe when I grew up, I would know too. When I last saw him about 2 years ago, Tom inspired that same feeling; I was still looking up to him.

We've lost the Sabo and Csaszar patriarch. Sue, Kelly, Marc and Rick: your husband, father and brother was that rarest of individuals, held in the highest regard and affection by literally every member of his extended family.

We remember and honor his well-lived life.

Sue and family, we are so sorry to hear about Tom. He was one special person who was loved. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

It is what it is! Nothing could sum up your life in a more perfectly succinct way. Treat people how you would want to be treated, make good decisions, and let the chips fall where they may. Hard for me to put into words how much we all learned from you during the past year, and especially over the last six weeks. The way in which you battled incredible and frightening adversity with strength, grace and nobility - something I will take with me forever. What an incredible gift.

Rest easy, pop. Tough times ahead, but we will all be ok. We learned from the absolute best. Love always.

Sue, Kelly, Marc Please be advised I have only changed my address I received a call from GOD , The Chief Architect, he informed me that my new house was complete. and it was time to move in. He told me to go ahead and change my address. It is located on an exclusive estate behind the beautiful Pearly Gates. Of course you all know were it is. There is peace here-joy, happiness no pain,no discontentment ,only sweet serenity. I can dine at the masters table and listen to the Heavenly Choir. I designed my own white robe with wings. And will be watching for all. I am going to pray that you all get to move here to some day. Let me give you my new address Thomas Sabo 1Pearly Gate God's Town, Heaven. I don't have a telephone but you can call on God any time. His line is never busy or disconnected and He's always There. If you don't know his number read your BIBLE It's listed on every page.
