Thomas ALDRIDGE Obituary
We are deeply saddened to share the news of Thomas Aldridge's passing on May 4, 2023. He was born in Toronto to Elizabeth (Betty) and Tom Aldridge. As passionate proprietor of manhattans pizza bistro music club for over 25 years, Thomas touched the lives of many with his generosity and big heart. He was a genuine participant in life and his loving nature shone through the way he cared for his staff, clientele, and the live musicians that performed almost nightly at manhattans. Thomas' charismatic and spontaneous spirit was infectious and he made fast friends wherever he went. He enjoyed communing with nature, peaceful walks through the forest or Exhibition Park and in the last few years fell in love with Georgian Bay island life. He was a boat, bikes, and classic car enthusiast with a need for speed on both land and water. Thomas adored dining out, good food, and a well crafted cocktail but most importantly, he loved sharing these experiences with others. Thomas made an indelible mark on the community of Guelph and afar and will be dearly missed by family and friends.
Peace + Love Thomas.
xoxo
A joyous celebration of life will be held at a later date.

I am so sorry to hear this news. You were a great person and we will always remember when you impressed my oldest with letting him show his class your Guinness world record. You will be missed.
