It was a year ago
you left us all behind,
You have gone to heaven,
but you're still here in our heats,
soul and mind.
I can still see your smile
that would brighten all our days
You have gone to heaven
but you're still here in many ways.
Whether it be at a softball game or
sitting in the bar
You have gone to heaven
but your laughter isn't far.
I may not have known you long
but our memories I will treasure
You have gone to heaven
but your memory lives on forever.
Miss you Tommy!

I remember babaysitting for Tommy for the first time.He was 5yrs old and he hardly even knew who I was,but as years went on we had gotten closer because I married into the family,and yes Tommy stood up for our wedding. He did alot of things for us and he even lived with us for awhile. We did alot together at times,good and bad times but mostly good. Tommy had a heart of gold. he is deeply missed and today he is 31,so HAPPY BIRTHDAY Tommy.
Love Auntie Terry We all miss you

72 days...who's counting? Seems like a lot less or a lot more depending on what day it is. Wasn't it just yesterday that he was walking into mom's backyard shouting 'What's up C-Bags!'. If you knew Tommy, you know what that is. He's still missed every day and probably will be forever.

I did not get a chance to meet Tommy but i know Ellen very well. We work together at the nursing home, she is like a mother to me. She called me the day he passed, i could tell something is wrong she never calls crying. My heart dropped when she told me. I knew how hard it was gonna be for her, let alone her whole family. I called everyday to check up on Ellen and she would call me in the middle of the night just to talk. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family Ellen. Rest in Peace Tommy. Know that your family still thinks about you everyday!!!1

i remember the day my mom called me. and told me to sit my sister and brothers on the couch. i had no idea what was going on. my auntie katie called me and was crying asking where my mom was so i told she was on her way home. i asked her what was going on. and she said tommy died. when i heard them two words i dropped the phone and cryed on my knee's. and seeing how hard it is for my nana and seeing her cry and how she could not stand made me really realize my uncle is gone and wont get to see him untill my day comes. when i was at the funeral i could barley breath and when i had to say my last goodbye's was one of the hardest things i had to do. i remember one day he took me on my first bike ride. that is a day i will never forget when he was rideing the motorcycle i told him not to go fast but he did anyway it was better going fast anyways but i remember holding on to him and rideing down the street. there is nothing anyone can to to bring him back i wish he was here today but i know he looking down at us all. I AM MISSING YOU AND I LOVE YOU UNCLE TOMMY † RIP †

wow where do i even begin 2 say about tommy. he was a great and loving son, father, and one of the best cousins a gurl could ever have. i will always cherish the good times we spent 2gether deep in my heart.
i remember a couple sumers ago when i was about mayb 13 or 14 and tommy and my dad were putting up dry wall in my room and at the time my dad wasnt home so tommy came over 2 finish it. and so b4 he left the house he threw something at my butt and i swear i chased him around the whole house for about a half hour with a broom stick. it was hilarious and i will never forget it.
when me and my mom got the news at work about wut happend i swear i felt my heart skip a beat because it did not seem real 2 me at all considering that we have all just seen you a week before for baby jaiden's birthday party!! but im pretty sure that the family was glad that you got 2 c us one last time and that you were there 2 help us celebrate his first birthday.
at the funeral all i kept thinkn about was wut if i lose my brother or my dad next?? i dont kno wut i would do if anything ever happend 2 either of them. my brother is my best friend in the whole world and my dad is my dad and i need both parents in my life.
now i kno everyone is sayn that your gone now and in a better place but in my perspective our not gone at all. u may b in a better place but never gone. your with me everywhere i go. always by my side and of course always on my heart. i just wished we could of spent alot more time together as the years went on. i'll always love and miss you 4ever and i'll never 4get you!!!
I LOVE YOU TOMMY!!!!
I MISS YOU!!!!
p.s i'll meet you up there one day but dnt worry i'll bring the party favors!!!love you always....lil cousin sara!!!!
My deepest sympathies to THE WHOLE FAMILY!!!!!! i love you all!!!

What is there to say that hasn't already been said about Tommy. He had an infectious personality and the minute you met him, you had to love him. No matter how busy he was he always had time for his family and although he'd never say it out loud I think the times spent at family gatherings were his favorite. On my 26th birthday he came out with me and my friends (even though he didn't have to) and everyone there was just drawn to him. I remember he grabbed my arm in front of everyone and danced with me while singing Simple Man at the top of his lungs. Tommy was 'that guy'. The one who didn't care who was watching or listening. When I found out that he was gone I knew I wasn't just losing my big brother, I was losing a friend, a protector and one of the only guys in my life that never let me down. Love you always & miss you forever Tommy. <3

I keep thinking about when Caryn called me and told me not to 'Freak Out', when she told me all I could think about was the last time I saw Tommy. Caryn and I were getting ready to go to Karaoke and Tommy was moving his things in by her, and I kept telling him, to come out with us, and see this hot bartender. When we were leaving he was trying to get us to help him carry his stuff up and I'm sure we said something like 'you can do it'. As I was passing his car, I noticed he dropped a hanger with ties in the snow and I remember picking it up and saying 'Dork' as I through it in his car. Tommy did end up meeting us at Karaoke, and we tried to get him to sing. Caryn sang and I remember looking at Tommy and he just had that grin, watching her.
The first time I ever meet Tommy, I instantly had a crush, and he pronounced my name "Ma-Ray-Nuh". I will never forget that. Or the time Caryn and I were at Sassy Fox and I made Tommy dance with me.
Knowing the Schnecks now for 10 years, they've become my family, I was there when we got the call about Grandma, I was there when Dennis passed away, and now the shock and the unrealness of Tommy.
I'll Miss You Tommy, I am grateful that I had the chance to know you, And thanks for 'hanging out' with us.
xoxo

I am not much of a writer but i feel everybody needs to hear this story about tommy and i. One day when we wer kids mabe 10 or 11 we went fishing at the domes i dident catch anything but tommy did a bullhead mabe 6 inches long so there was an old man fishing next to us with all his tackle and fishing gear we thought it was funny like he was going to catch "the big one" anyways tommy kept that small fish on his hook and threw it back in the water and acted like he kept catching fish but it was the same one the old man said "wow u guys r lucky we wer fighting back tears we wer laughing so hard by the time tommy stopped messing with the guy the fish was dead. tommy was so fun to be arround he had a way with every body its so hard to cope with the fact that he is gone he will always b in my heart love u tom see u on the other side ill bring the beers

tommy was about 7,maybe 8,i remember taking him to the park,the school playground across the street,almost everyday-just to whip the ball at him,to practice groundballs...i'd yell in his face-"dont be afraid of the ball"...the kid never complained,never back-talked me,& never quit..didnt put up a fight-because i wanted him to bat lefty,when i nailed him a good one with the ball-he'd shag the next one with tears in his eyes...that was tommy...as years went by,i coached him/his friends-in leagues,tournaments,etc...never had to say a word to him-he knew what i wanted from him,he knew how to win,& the team followed him...that was tommy...over the years,we grew apart,did our own things...disagreements,fights,just different ways of looking at life,& doing things,now...i wish we had more moments,more memories...just more...i got to hangout with him one last time-caught a rock show,called him outta the blue,hadnt seen/talked to him for awhile,just had the urge to have him there-it was my favorite band & i wanted him to like them-& he did...i'm so sorry tommy...i'll miss you & you'll always be with me-love you bro...

I don't know where to start. I haven't seen Tom in how long. I used to live on 31st. st on the corner.Johnny and Tom would help boost me up to get at my porch because I would sneak out the house to play block tag. We were always playing some kind of games. He was a funny guy to be around. I had heard that he had a daughter and she will be the one that is going to be suffering the most. My prayers and thoughts go out to the family.

Where do I start ? I have 20 years of memorys.
I wanna share with you the 1st day I met Tommy . I just moved to the neighborhood on 31st and Mitchell and there was this kid sitting on the porch of the house next door. He kindly asked me " Hey whats your name? Are you moving in here"? I replied " Yes, My names Jon and I am moving in here ". He introduced himself to me and asked if he could help , from there on out , we were pretty much unseparable.
As kids we did a lot of things together , rode bikes , played baseball together at Burnham Park , went fishing , camping , played kick the can, and can't forget block tag , with everyone in the neighborhood (you know who you are). As we got older we got into mini bikes and motorcycles. I remember purchasing my first motorcycle, and Tommy insisted on getting a motorcycle as well , so he bought an old Honda , I believe it was a 70 something 754 . That thing had some get up and go ! I remember him coming around the corner where a good friend of ours lived. He came barreling at us like a bat out of hell as we watched him fly by us from the garage. He couldn't stop in time and ran into some of those big green garbage cans and fell over. He was quick to reply, " Hey come help me pick this thing up, it weighs a ton " !
Ill never forget that moment.
I had a great time with him and a few other friends that were working and living in Wisconsin Dells for a summer. It was so fun, alot of us made the local news paper !
I could go on for hours.
I shared many laughs and many tears with Tommy. He will forever remain in my thoughts.
Farewell my friend , untill we meet again . . .
