My deepest sympathy to Tom's Family on their loss. Tom seldom missed the St. Philip Alumni Dinners and faithfully purchased a Misericordia annual raffle ticket . Tom was a classmate of mine. He is a class act and will be greatly missed. Tom, please say hello to all our fallen Gaels.

Tom and I were team mates on the Gents baseball team. Thank-you Tom, for all the good times we shared together, you were there when I most needed someone. I believe that you are in a better place and at peace.

My condolences to the Arkenberg family on the loss of Thomas P Arkenberg. I know he will be missed, but feel your Mom and God are welcoming him to a better life. Your Dad probably is, too, but my memory is of your Mom.

Tom was a dear dear friend. He did mine and my daughters tax's for 20 something years. We always made a day of it because he was such a joy to be with.Every year he came to our family Christmas get together and entertained us with his many stories and comments. We all loved him and we certainly will miss him.
He touched so many lives. Love,& Light be with you Tom...Sally,Philip,Cheri,& Tom

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Tom. He was a great friend of my dad. They enjoyed cubs games together and Tom told me many funny stories about their time together. Tom helped our family with our taxes for many years, and he was especially helpful to us after my dad died for which I am very grateful. He always had a kind word to say or a funny story to tell. We will miss him very much. I can imagine the two of them together now sharing more fun and watching the cubs from above. My sympathy to all his family and friends.

He taught us how to live, and let live, and laugh; - and definitely made us all laugh.
A one of a kind incredibly great man who will be sorely missed and forever loved.

Gus,
You were always there for us, from taking us to sporting events to walking me down the aisle. Generous and fun, no one could have been a better uncle to us than you were. You have always been the life of our family and we will never forget you. We hope to be as good to our nieces and nephews as you always were to us.
Thanks, we miss you.
Love, Aunt Pat and Uncle Wayne
