Tommie Winquist Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jul. 19, 2024.
Machesney Park - Tommie (Tom) John Winquist, 75, of Machesney Park, IL passed away in Melbourne, Fl on July 18, 2024 surrounded by loved ones. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

Tom is survived by his children Rhonda (Douglas) Booker, Timothy (Michelle) Winquist, Travis (Sam) Winquist, sister, nephew and grandchildren.

Tom was born on March 30, 1949. He was a successful business man in Master Carpentry, owning T.J Winquist Builders.

In his prime, Tom was a ladies man. He enjoyed rebuilding cars and loved his 1980 Corvette, riding his Harley and spending time in his massive mechanics dream of a garage. He had a heart of gold, would give the shirt off of his back and often had done so.

Tom
Was an awesome man and taught me so many things and always had nifty gadgets to make certain jobs easier. The man was truly a craftsman and I´ll ways be grateful for having the opportunity of being his friend.
