My heartfelt sympathy to all Tom's family. I knew him from Independence Junior and High School and remember what a kind, decent, and gentle man he was then. He was from a wonderful family and obviously became a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. I kept in touch with his mother while she was still alive and living in Lakeland, FL, and his best friend Victor Knox since Independence Junior and High School and (who passed away last year). Everyone who ever knew him had nothing but praise for him; rightly so.
May God bless you and give you peace and happiness in your memories.

I cannot find the words to express my sense of loss at Tom's passing. From the time I arrived at Cheyney in 1997 to my first year as department chair in 2005 - Tom was a trusted mentor and friend. He was loved by his students, and was an active chair of the evaluation committee for his junior colleagues. There are a number of us who owe our easy passage into tenure to Tom's vigilance. I will miss him a lot.

Dr. Thomas E. Chaddock was a gentleman, my colleague, and my friend. I know Dr. Chaddock primarily from his place of employment as a college professor of psychology in the Department of Social & Behavioral Sciences at Cheyney University. Dr. Chaddock was an excellent professor. As an educator, he had great rapport with his students and was very effective and well organized, and extremely knowledgeable about his subjects. Students enjoyed his classes and spoke very highly of him. As a fellow faculty member of his for 32 years, I admired Tom for his integrity, his strong work ethic, his directness,his humility, his humor, his perceptiveness, and his intelligence. Our diverse conversations were enjoyable and fun, probably because, we shared many common viewpoints about topics and issues. In 2011, we met for lunch after I had retired from Cheyney University. We had a good time reminiscing and discussing retirement. Tom told me he was going to the YMCA regularly and he looked very fit. As a matter of fact, after our lunch he was meeting Nancy for a walk. I left Tom, knowing that he was very happy and content and was enjoying his retirement. I will miss him.

My deepest condolences to you, Nancy, and the entire family on the loss of your beloved husband, father, grandfather and brother. Tom was a supportive and helpful mentor to me when I began my career at Cheyney ten years ago. He was a dedicated professor and admired colleague. I hope that your wonderful memories shared together will sustain you through this difficult time and always be a blessing to each of you.

This is such a surprise, I talked to Tom about a year and half ago and he seemed as energetic as ever. I know he had to be one of the fittest members of our department. I am really sorry for your loss. We still have many fond memories of him in the Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences at Cheyney. The Psychology program is doing very well and Tom helped build it with his years of dedicated teaching and advising.
