He was the son of Charles Gill Talbott, Jr. and Carolyn Campazzie Talbott, of Darien, Connecticut where he attended the Darien public schools. He was treasurer of the Class of 1960 alumni reunion committee where he recently attended his 50th reunion.

A lifetime member of Roton Point Club in Rowayton, CT, he was an avid tennis player, sailor and the original "Grove Rover". Playing the guitar was one of his many talents and he loved to read, sing and dance.

I knew Tommy a number of years ago when I lived in
Darien CT. He was a great guy and also had a very nice sister. I only recently learned of his passing and my heart goes out to his family. Don Clewell of Ann Arbor Michigan. September 2025

Tom was a special fellow; always a kind word, smile, always sincerely. As a classmate of his at both Darien High and UConn, and as a attendee of our many reunions over the years, he was still the same kind, funny man.
My condolences to his family and dear friends.

It was a privilege to have known and worked with Tom. He was always ready with a smile when I arrived. I was always in awe of the courage, dignity, and positive attitude with which he faced the challenges of his illness. Rest easy, Tom - you will be missed, but not forgotten.

We were classmates at Darien High and at UConn. Then worked together on several DHS reunions. Always had some laughs at each stop along the way. Sorry I didn't get down to see him since our 50th two years ago.
