I'm so greatful that Tom was recognized for his contributions and leadership in the organizing and participation of the labor movement at UAW Local 1069 . Also encouraged that Thomas III is following in the grand tradition of his Father. My sincere condolences and prayers....... Peter F. McGee

I am very saddened to learn of Mr.Lyons passing. My condolences and prayers are with Tommy and your family.

Tom was much more than a member of local 1069. Tom helped to create the UAW local. Years ago when I was a very young union steward Tom was a highly respected mentor and shop chairman. If something was being done wrong Tom would fix it. All his union brothers and sisters owe Tom many thanks. Sorry to read of his passing. My sincere condolences to his family.
