Please accept my condolences on the loss of your loved one. I visited Tom often at St. John Neumann when I learned he was a retired firefighter. He loved to tell me his rescue stories, his WWII memories and how he met his wife. My Dad, Ken, was also a resident at St. John's. My heartfelt prayers and condolences to all. I salute and thank him for his service to our country and our City.
Sincerely,
Eileen

Tom was truly a man to be admired. He showed strength, courage and honesty throughout his life, but most of all he showed us how to love one's family deeply. To the McGann family, I thank you for sharing him with us and offer our deepest sympathy for the loss you feel in not having him at your side.
