Thomas Moran Obituary

Moran, Thomas "Buggsy"

If I had a lifetime wish, one dream that would come true, we'd pray to God so hard for yesterday and you.The things we feel so deeply, are the hardest things to say, But we, your family, love you, in a very special way. They say memories are golden, well maybe that is true, But we never wanted memories, we only wanted you. If teardrops were a stairway, and heartaches made a lane, we'd walk a path to Heaven, and bring you back again. A thousand times we've needed you and a thousand times we'll cry, If our love could have saved you, you never would have died! We all miss you Tommy...till we meet again xoxoxo

I miss you so much Daddy! Averie and I both....she talks about you all the time. I thank you for always being such an amazing Father and Grandfather. Not a day goes by I don't think of you and wish you were here so we could share a quick phone call or so I could ask you any number of silly things that I knew you always had ALL the answers for. Forever in my heart....I love you! Meg

Tommy...It is so hard to express how important you are to me. You are the big brother I always wanted, and the voice of reason, so often. You filled in as a father figure for my kids who wouldn't of had one otherwise. Always there when I needed advice or a recipe, or a helping hand. You made my sister's life so rich and full of love and laughter. That alone was so special, but for everything you have always given all of us, I will always love you. I miss you brother...

Tom, you will be missed by so many. I lost touch with you but never forgot all those times we had. Occasionally a thought of you and all those on the old "team" would pop in my mind of a place we went or something we did. Thoughts always with you... Mary Lynch and family.
