To the Farrell Family,
It has saddened me to hear the loss of your much-loved Tommy. It's hard to express my thoughts without being able to reach out and hug any of you. I may have only been a family friend, but ALL of you have made me feel so much more than that. “Uncle” Tommy as I knew him could always make me laugh hysterically, sometimes to the point of tears. The stories he told always amazed me. It must be in those Farrell Genes! My thoughts and prayers are with all of you through this difficult time.
God Bless

Rest in peace uncle Tommy. You were always so kind, loving and would do anything for us! I will never forget all the memories that I have in my heart from giving all of us dollar bills asking us who our favorite uncle was, the letters we wrote back and forth to the portraits you had made for me, to the smile that you always had. The way you would light up a room with your blue eyes that I always was so jealous of. My kids were always so excited to see you and I know that they loved your giant hugs as much as you did. I will never forget you and I am so proud that I got to call you my uncle. I love you and I miss you.

Rest in Peace Little Brother. Remembering all the great times as kids. Playing football at the park, street hockey, little league, PAL basketball, even the golf league. You were always the better athlete. Tree climbing, biking, hiking, cub scouts, boy scouts, racing, sailing, fighting. You name we did it together. Even as adults working together. I will miss you very much. I know that you are in Gods hands now. God Bless You and watch over you. Until we meet again. I love you

I was so sorry to read about Tom's passing. He was one of my earliest students at St. Jean Baptiste School. We had our 'moments" in September but by the mid part of the year we both came to a mutual admiration. Tom was a good kid who I'm sure grew to be a good adult, that's all you can ask. My deepest sympathies to all the Farrell clan, including Ted and Diane, also former students of mine. Those years at St. Jean's always bring a smile to my face, (remember the disappearing ink incident!) God bless all of you, Omer "Jay" Martineau

Tom I wil miss your beautiful eyes, your smile and your big heart for others. You were more than a brother-in-law to me, you were a brother. You taught us all how important it is to tell your family how much they mean to you. You never had a lot, you didn't need a lot but everything you did have you would share with whoever needed it. Rest eternally now in the loving arms of Jesus where there are no more tears and where you will soar on the wings of Angels. And we will meet again dear brother. I love you.

Your smile always lit up a room. It is with much sadness that we have to say good bye so soon. You touched so many lives and were loved by so many. God bless you Tommy.
