Dear Alice,
No words can adequately convey my sadness for you and your family. It has been many years, and I miss you. Still think of you as my "bestie". Praying for you all.

Alice, Angie, Marion, Tom, Chris, and Family,

Words cannot completely releive the pain in your hearts, when we lose a loved one!
Know that you all are in my thoughts and prayers. May God give each of you strength courage and fortitude to move forward. I am so saddened to hear of his passing and regrettably cannot attend the services!

Tom helped so many people over the years with his knowledge of the union systems. If you had a question about policy, procedure or protocol, he knew the answer or the steps you should take for resolution.
He was a devoted husband and loved and cherished his family. Savor fond memories!

Please accept my sincere condolences!

Tom, my Brother, my Friend -

I worked with Tom for nearly 8 years and I must say, no one will ever find a more upstanding guy than Tom. He was loved by all. He and I were fellow steelworkers and talked about those days often. I will miss him immensely. Bless him and may he rest in peace.

To Tom's wife, children, grandchildren and siblings, please find comfort in all of the wonderful memories you have of your husband, father, grandfather and brother.

Love to you all,
Sandy McGraw
