It´s hard to believe that it´s been 10 years without Hobs here to celebrate all the happy events the Hoban family has had. This world is in a crazy place right now but you are in a much better & peaceful one. Until we meet again my friend keep watching over your loved ones. Sending love & hugs to all who miss him so.

Uncle Tom, I miss you more & more each day. I cannot stop thinking of you. I love you so much. I still can't believe your really gone. Wish this was all a nightmare; but sadly it's all REAL. I miss you a lot. Nobody understands. I love you so much. I know not as much as Mom-Mom. But I am super lucky you were my godfather. You still are. I hope you like my tattoo. Don't worry Pop-Pop, I'm gonna get one for you too! Your both in heaven together. Which is the greatest feeling. Watch over everybody. I'm gonna be a firefighter one day, Uncle Tom. You would probably think I am crazy. You always told me to be a model & you'd be my manager. Should of done it. Definetly regret not doing it with you. I love you, I miss you & I need you 100% more than anything. Rest in peace my handsome angel. Always in my heart. I promise you'll never leave it!

To my other Family: Mrs. Hoban and the whole Hoban gang,
Words can't express how sorry I am for the loss of your beloved Tom. We had alot of fun and laughs working together those years at Jimmy's store. Now I know for sure those days will never come back without our HOBS. He was one of the many reasons it didn't feel like going to a job each day, but just a day hanging with family and friends. He always made me smile when I came to a Hoban family party or get together and he would say, "Okay Nettie, you're my date tonight!" and we would have a laugh.
With much love to you all,
Nettie

To the Hoban family I'm so sorry for your loss. Tom was such a great guy I remember so many good times with him going to Atlantic City and just sitting on his front porch. He always spoke of his family he was so proud. He will be missed by many.

Words can not express how devastated I am over the lose of Tommy - he was such a wonderful guy. so great to talk to at all of the Hoban-Morison get togethers (and there were plenty). My deepest sympathy goes to the Hoban family for such a traumatic loss. I must admit we are all lucky to be able to say we know him, and even luckier to have a fun loving angel to watch over us and our families. Rest in peace Tommy - and keep an eye on all of us.
