I was so lucky to have known Tony at work and am so sorry to hear of his death. That he is home with God and to know we will see him again where there will be no more goodbyes
brings comfort but loss is loss. My prayers go to you. He was some
one I could share Penn State football with......so glad to have his friendship....
Take care.

Tom was much more than a good neighbor - he and his family helped me in so many ways after my husband's passing! We fished together, listened to each other's problems and concerns, laughed and made fun of each other, vacationed together, and genuinely enjoyed each other's company. Tom never met a stranger- always friendly and outgoing , he will truly be missed by all those who loved him. My heart breaks for Jana and her family at this heartbreaking time.

I served with Tom. He was the kindest man I knew. Always ready to lend a hand, teach a better way and lift the spirits of all those around him. My heart is broken. My thoughts and prayers go out to you, his family at such a trying time. I am sure though , that you all have the same quite unwavering strength and faith as he did. My God keep and bless you all. It was an honor and a privilege to serve next to such an amazing man.
