A true and loyal friend from when I joined the 2nd AIF in 1941 at Brighton. Then in the early 1950's when rising fast tried very hard to bury us both, we survived. We then experienced happy and normal lives. Over the years we shared together many business highlights. But now mate it is time to say goodbye, until we meet again may god the father, son and help spirit bless you.

The North West Coast and Burnie in particular have lost one of its best with the passing of Tom Wragg.
A highly respected local identity who was always ready to lend a hand to those in need, or a worthy cause. His sense of humour, fair play and genuine demeanour endeared him to many.
Esteemed friend and neighbour to Selby, Geoff and Paul Harris families Boatharbour Beach.
Sincerest condolences to all his family

Tommy as I knew him was a true gentleman in every way. My late Husband Graeme Whitehouse Knew Tommy Since He Held The Licence Of The Bay View Hotel In The 1960's. He knew my Mum & Dad from a young age they were about 18 now my dad has passed & my Mum is 87 almost. I remember you from the days in Melbourne at Connell's Tavern. I spoke to Tommy just before Christmas to tell him that Graeme had passed away. My Deepest Sympathy to Tommy's Family he was one very humble & caring man. R.I.P Tommy From Mavis Richards & Shirley Whitehouse.

Tom, or "Sir' Tom as we 'nick-named' him', didn't want any fanfares but one cannot let him slip away without acknowledging him. A true gentleman, an honest man, a man who loved his dear Nina and family and who had a great love and knowledge of horses and racing. One of the best. A life well lived R.I.P Tom
