Thomas Farley Obituary
Oct. 30, 1951 - Apr. 30, 2016
Thomas Martin Farley, age 64, passed away on April 30, 2016, in Sarasota, FL.
Tom is survived by his wife, Kimberlee; son, David (Jennifer) Beirau, daughter, Dana (Drew) Wright; grandchildren, Jameson, Madelyn and Chase.
Tom was the proud owner of American Mechanical, Inc. for the last 37 years. He enjoyed cruising in his 55 Chevy, playing golf and spending time with his grandkids. Traveling with his wife and family was one of his passions. He loved visiting Italy, Napa Valley and Aruba. In recent days you could find him relaxing on his boat in Nashville with a great cigar. Getting dressed up, sharing an evening with family and friends, martini in hand, is how he will always be remembered.
A visitation is scheduled for Thursday, May 5, 2016 from 3-6 p.m. at Toale Brothers Funeral Home Colonial Chapel in Sarasota, FL with a celebration to follow at Tom's favorite local spot, Marina Jacks. All are welcome to attend and celebrate Tom's life. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Autonomic Diseases Gift Fund c/o Vanderbilt University Gift Processing, PMB 407727, Nashville, TN 37240-7727. Please make checks payable to Vanderbilt Medical Center.

My sincere condolences to the family. I've always enjoyed talking with Tom throughout the years, as he was always upbeat and shared in the same deal making ideology as me. Over the years we shared in a couple of business transactions, neither of which really needed to be done by contract, as we had that mutual respect for one another that only needed a handshake or word! Although we haven't done much together in recent years, Tom was always there to help anyway he could. He will be very much missed as a friend and business associate.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Tom but enjoyed years of having him for a customer. He was always pleasant and seems to be such a kind person. I just spoke with him on the phone last Wednesday and now he is gone. My most heartfelt condolences to his family. You are in my prayers.
