Tom , will be deeply missed not just in the beer business but in life. Tom left a legacy that will never be matched. Tom was what I consider the Million dollar man in the beer business. He taught so many people the right way to sell , he was so passionate about what he did and a man like Tom can never be replaced. We all truly appreciated Tom for who he was , what he believed in and his true passion for what he did. Rest in peace Tom you will be forever missed.

Joan, Linda, Greg, Karl and Jack,
I was deeply saddened to learn of Tom's passing. May you be comforted at this difficult time by the knowledge that Tom is at home and at peace with the Lord. He is enjoying the best banquet imaginable surrounded by angels and saints. He's reunited with your Mom and Dad and all those that have gone before him. Today, in prayer, I am celebrating the gift of his life from God to us and I am placing you all in the palm of God's hands. Peace be with you!

I just wanted to offer my condolences to Tom's family. I am so sorry for your loss but rest assured Tom will be with you forever in your hearts and mind just as be will be in mine and everyone he touched during his lifetime. He was the type of person that befriended everyone he came in contact with. He was such a positive in my life who taught me so much. He was an original in the craft beer business who taught and mentored many people. He will be sorely missed by me and everyone he friended.I know he may not be here physically but his presence will always be with us. Again I am so sorry for your loss.

You meet many characters in the beer business and not many can match living the largeness of life as did Tom. He taught me a lot about the business every time that I saw him and I consider myself fortunate to have worked with him. He will be deeply missed.

I have so many fond memories of Tommy that it's difficult to share just one. However, our two weeks of touring Italy in 2001 was the best vacation of my life. Tommy knew how to have fun. What a loss for this world, but especially your family. I loved Tommy very much and will miss him even more. Fondly, Theresa

We were so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. We were neighbors - and friends - for a long time in Queen Village. He introduced himself to us because while walking his beloved Barney, he checked out our recycling/beer choices. From then on we were getting educated! Loved by so many and for sure gone too soon!

I knew Tom since the early '90's and he's the reason we sell Yuengling. You were the best in your field. I want to believe that craft beer will now be as popular in heaven as it is here. It was an honor to know you Tom.....you will sincerely be missed. Rest easy my friend.....safe journey., and I hope to see you again on the other side.
