Thomas Crosley Obituary
Tom was born on October 8, 1949, in Davenport, the son of Harry and Ethel (Blair) Crosley. He graduated from Davenport West High School and from St. Ambrose College. He was a partner at the accounting firm Doyle & Keenan, P.C., the Chief Financial Officer at Marycrest College, and was an accountant at Alter Trading Corporation.
Tom enjoyed golfing, bowling, and watching the St. Louis Cardinals. He was a lifetime member of Newcomb Presbyterian Church, served as an Elder, and volunteered for kids' club for a number of years.
Tom is survived by his brothers, James of Davenport, IA, and Roy (Grace) of Philadelphia, PA, as well as several nieces, nephews, and cousins. They all loved him and will miss him. He was preceded in death by his parents and brothers, Allen, Kenneth, and Gary.
A memorial service is planned for a future date. Tom will be inurned at Davenport Memorial Park. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Newcomb Presbyterian Church, 2619 N. Division St., Davenport, IA 52804.

Tom helped my Dad, Mike Moritz, coach baseball during the summer of `79. As "The Crusher", he also bowled with my Dad back then. He was always smiling and had such a great laugh! A truly kind man. Smart too.
My Mom and I visited him at Ridgecrest in early November. Great talking with him after all these years. Sad and sorry he´s gone, but glad my Dad has another friend with him in Heaven, especially as baseball starts up again. My sincere sympathies to Tom´s family.

Tom was genuine, funny, and caring. I never heard him complain and he was always quick with a smile. We miss him in our worship service here at Ridgecrest Village. Thanks, Tom for the many conversations related to our shared faith. Rest from your labors, brother.

We are so sorry for your loss. Tom was so nice and always made me feel happy. He also called me Little Sue. My sister worked with him at Marycrest College.
