It's been too many years since I've seen him, but strong happy memories of childhood play at Nana and PopPops. Way too young to be gone. Peace to his family. With love, your cousin, Linda Ristan Schmidt

Sincere condolences to Tom's family. I never met him in person as I live in Florida, but Roofco helped with some problems with my Commercial property roof in New Jersey over 2018. He was a gentleman and did his best to accommodate the situations as they occurred. May he Rest In Peace. I was shocked to hear he passed away. Sincerely Meredith Douglas
