A honorable very kind man with a big heart, he always looked out for me as did the rest of his family and his friends and relatives that knew me.

Personally, I have lost one of my heroes. Mr. Incaviglia will always be Coach to me. What I remember and treasure most was that his coaching effort and intensity was the same no matter what the ability of the athlete. All you had to have was a love of the game to have Coach's complete and undivided attention.

He was a great ambassador for the game and for healthy activity for the youth of the Peninsula; Coach's actions taught humility along with the basics.

My God, we had our own home town professional baseball player as our coach; he looked you right in the eye when he spoke to you; in his mid 40's he would still hit balls out of Jack's Park left field(before the plate moved) and just grin when we roared our appreciation.

What a productive 80 years for several generations of Monterey youth!

You will be missed but not forgotten

I will always remember Tom's smile and enthusiasm for life, especially at baseball games. He and Dora opened their home to us and treated us as if we were family, the times we came to Monterey to visit. I'll never forget the lovely Italian meal they fixed in our honor, the tours of Monterey, brunch at the Pebble Beach Club, all the fun times at UofA baseball games. Your passing saddens me, but leaves us all with wonderful memories of what an inspirational man you were.
Love, Jennifer Moran Kunow

Our fathers had very similar styles of coaching in Babe Ruth and Pony League.
"Everyone works hard, everyone plays".
As a 'scorekeeper' I ran down bleacher steps to retrieve the lineup changes behind home plate from Mr. Incaviglia.
He always acknowledged me with a "Thanks sweetie" and back to coaching mode he went.
Very fine memories of those years and meeting men that taught the game of baseball and demonstrated high values.
Sent with deepest sympathy to you all from the daughter of the late Sam Russo.
