Happy 1st Birthday in Heaven Uncle Tommy,
we wish you could be here to blow your 39 candles out.....If you were here we would all have some carvel ice cream cake, one of your favorites, I remember you hated the chocolate part and would give that part to us and just eat the vanilla and the crunchies. maybe we will have one today in memory of you.. Although we are sad because you are not here to share your birthday with, we know you are having a big party with Uncle Billy and your brother Allan and all the rest of your friends and family in heaven.
We love you Uncle Tommy, love your nephews,

To my cousin (s)
All the memories yet to make were taken in one second of one morning I like to forget. I will miss you no doubt. So many say including myself, “we have all the time in the world” not true for I lost a lot of the time with you. For so many years raising our own families we fell short on staying in touch with one and other. Why, don’t know, I myself guess life just got in the way. I’m very sorry for that. It took me a very long time to accept the loss of Allan it will take me a whole lot longer to accept this. I promise you I will make every attempt to stay a lot closer to all our love ones and especially are family. Keep a seat warm for me will ya for we will all be together again. And make sure your brother keeps you in check.
I deeply miss the both of you.
cousin forever

Tom,
My heart goes out to your whole family. It's been a long time, but I always expected to come home to CT. one day and find you and George doing some crazy things we would get wrapped up in back in the day. We had many good times together growing up that I will never forget. You were a great friend, and a great brother. You were always there, you would of taken on the whole world to protect your family and friends. I can't express how glad I am the our paths crossed so many years ago.
Till are paths cross again Tommy, heres little something from back in the day, you know what it means - SKIP SCAP BUTTER NICK ON THE BONE!!
I'll miss you brother,

I am so sorry for the tragic loss your family had to endure again. I thought the services you held for Tommy were beautiful and moving. I felt Tommy's presence in church and in my heart. Seeing all the young people from Wood Ave, all grown up into such wonderful adults with families of their own made me so proud. Tommy, watching Maria, Kim and Salt with your children left me with a sense of peace. I know you will watch over them from heaven, but know there are angels on earth watching them also. Maria you are so strong and capable, and I know you have your struggles ahead of you but I know you can face them and continue to raise your beautiful children to be successful adults. Please remember you are not alone. If you ever need me, please let me know. Missy, I was so proud of you at the service (as usual), your strength is a gift and I am lucky to be a part of it. Auntie I, I love you very much and I feel your pain. Thank you for letting me be a part of your children's lives as they grew up, it was a gift I never realized meant so much to me until now. I am here for you if you ever need anything.
Billy, keep up the good work! Please let me know what I can do to help you get thru this. You did a great job at the services and I know how much it meant to your mom to have you by her side. I love you.

Tommy,
The friend I shared my childhood with, so many fun times on Wood Ave I can't begin to name them all. We worked together every day for 20 years. You were the best man in my wedding and you stood by my side when my Dad died. Our families shared so many good times together, so many holidays and parties. My kids loved you so much. I never had a brother but today I feel like I lost one. I'll try to remember all the good times and not the bad.
My Godson Thomas,
Your dad was so proud of you and he loved you so much, you were his playmate and a great excuse to be in ToysRus. When he looked at you it reminded him of Al and all the good times he had as a child. I'll always be here for ya!
Natasha(Nana), When I lost my father no words could comfort me. You were daddy's little girl. He always bragged about how beautiful you were and "he was right". He was a strong person and he'd want you to be strong too. If you ever need to talk about your dad, I have a million stories to tell you.
Maria,
My lifelong friend, I don't know what to say. It's such a tragedy and I think I'm still in shock. So many memories, so many pictures I know you'll stay strong for them. If you ever need to talk, I'm always here for you and the kids.
Eileen, Missy and Billy,
I share your pain, I know how badly this hurts, especially after losing Al. Tommy's been my friend since we were 4 years old and there's no replacing him. He'll be missed dearly. I know Tommy's happy to finally be with Al.
Tina, Jim and the girls

What a terrible shock. Just reading his name I was transported to a time when the sight of a ten-year old Tommy,with that easy smile, would be standing on the steps outside Crown market. Of all the people who've left us since those days on Wood Ave, I would have never thought Tommy would be among them. I won't leave my name, you wouldn't remember it, but I remember him and am so very very sorry for your loss.

To my big brother Tommy,
I will miss you always and I find peace knowing that you are with Allan. The best gift a brother could give a sister is our conversation the night before you left this earth. I know that you were looking forward to that big tree job in Stamford. A piece of you lives on forever in Tasha and Thomas. You have 2 beautiful children who are going to miss you.
I know that you are watching over us and know that we all miss you
and love you. I'm sorry you didn't
get hot dogs on Wed. (At St. Augustine's) I rememeber not getting them because I hate hot dogs. I'm so glad You never gave me a hard time about smiling for a picture. I love to take pictures and I feel so blessed that I have many photo's with you and OUR children together with that great smile of yours. I LOVE YOU TOM !!
Thanks so much for that talk and I'm glad that You felt better when we ended our conversation.
May you be at peace NOW, and give
Allan a big hug from his only sister.
LOVE ALWAYS, Your Only Sis, Missy

September 12, 2006
I SAW THIS AND THOUGHT THIS IS THE WAY TOMMY WOULD WANT HIS FAMILY TO TRY AND DEAL WITH HIS LOSS:
I'D LIKE THE MEMORY OF ME TO BE A HAPPY ONE,
I'D LIKE TO LEAVE AN AFTERGLOW OF SMILES WHEN LIFE IS DONE.
I'D LIKE TO LEAVE AN ECHO WHISPERING SOFTLY DOWN THE WAYS,
OF HAPPY TIMES AND LAUGHING TIMES
AND BRIGHT AND SUNNY DAYS.
I'D LIKE THE TEARS OF THOSE WHO CRY, TO DRY BEFORE THE SUN
OF HAPPY MEMORIES THAT I LEAVE
WHEN LIFE IS DONE.

TO THE GAUDET FAMILY:
I AM SOO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS, WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS HOW BAD I FEEL FOR THE WAY TOMMY WAS TAKEN FROM ALL OF YOU. LIFE IS SOO UNFAIR!! I KNEW TOMMY YEARS AGO FROM THE SHORT TIME HE WENT TO SCHOOL IN MILFORD. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER HIS BEAUTIFUL SMILE, THE WAY HE LIT UP A ROOM WHEN HE ENTERED IT. HE WAS ALWAYS WILLING TO LEND A HAND TO ANYONE THAT NEEDED HELP, HE WAS A TRUE FRIEND. PLEASE TRY AND STAY STRONG, LIVE LIFE THE BEST YOU CAN, TOMMY WOULD WANT IT THAT WAY. ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT HE WILL FOREVER BE WATCHING OVER YOU AND YOU ALL HAVE A "GUARDIAN ANGEL". MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU ALWAYS.

Dear Eileen: I went to nursing school with you almost 10 years ago. I read about this horrible tragedy and I, unfortunately, understand what it is like to have your loved one taken from you without any warning. I feel so badly for you and your family. This was a horrible and senseless act and your lives have forever been changed. The grief that you are experiencing is beyond what a family should have to deal with. Know that your brother would want you all to be ok. Please give yourself time to grieve. Grief is a very long process and it is different for everyone. Allow yourself to go through this process. Stay close to your children and hold them dear in your heart. They will help you get through this extremely difficult time. God bless you and your entire family. You are in my thoughts. Karen Enders

Dear Uncle Tommy,
Man I wish I could wake up from this nightmare and go back to all the good times I know you remember the old times. How do things get so messed up in this world ? Uncle Tom remember when you rode me and Thomas triple on your motorcycle? man that was so fun! Remember how mad my mom got! She yelled at you and then you guys made up and she made us good food. You always loved good food. Remember you and me would put tons of cheese on our pizza? you always made good pizza's. remember when we all went to six flags? I love you uncle Tom so much, its so hard to believe your not here. We saved your puppy for you just like you wanted we gave it to tasha and thomas. Tasha named it Faith and its really making them smile to have it even auntie maria thinks its cute. Things will never be the same without you but I promise to take care of Thomas and be a good cousin to him. I will always love you Uncle Tommy I just wish I could have told you one more time. so now I have to tell you here uncle tom.
Peace
love your nephew Thomasi

Thea Maria, we were shocked to hear that Uncle Tommy was gone. We have fun memories of him playing video games with us and showing us how to play the games. Other than my father he was the only other man that changed my diaper(Eleni)that's how hands on he was with us. Loved to participate in our backyard games and took me for my first sleigh ride(Anastasi). Natasha and Thomas we are sorry that you only had this time with your Dad but hope that his memory will always bring a smile to your faces.
Maria, Natasha and Thomas we know the love that was shared was an unconditional love and it will never be replaced. Tommy had a good heart and we know that he passed that kindness to his children. Tommy's death effected all of us. Yiayia is devastated that she can't be here for all of you. She loved him and never denied what a good father he was. May his memory be everlasting and may you find solace in knowing that his soul is at peace.
All our love, Kosta, Ang, Anastasi, Eleni, Magdalini, Niko and Angeliki

Dear Eileen, Natasha, Thomas, Missy, Billy and Maria. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. My husband, myself and my entire family sends their condolences to all of you. We are deeply saddened and shocked at this sudden tragedy. You know how close Tommy was to Richie. Tom was our best man at our wedding 10 yrs ago, where he gave a very touching toast to our Marriage. Rich recalls many happy times with Tommy from Childhood and worked with him side by side for years laughing together. He was a great Dad to Natasha and Thomas and he loved them with all his heart. May God comfort all of you in your greatest time of need. "We love you Tom" You are forever in our Hearts!
