I am sorry for such a catastrophic loss to your family and friends. I was acquainted with Tommy back when, and always saw that he was such an easy-going spirit and well-liked.

I was very fortunate to be come friends with Tommy when I was 16. I had Greek parents and we were not allowed out but they started to let my sister and I go hang out at Dolan cause my dad knew Tommy´s dad back in the day. (Even though Tommy was too cool to hang out with me and be my boyfriend ) I tried! decades passed , we all grew up got married and had babies and luckily Tommy and I caught up with each other a couple years ago at a Liegelord concert... got to update each other on our lives and brag about our kids to each other and continued to touch base with each other every six months or so. He was a forever friend. Im deeply sorry for your loss. He was a good man. I always saw a sparkle in Tommy´s eyes ... keep it going and I am here if there is anything I can possibly do - Jamie Stamas

When I heard the news, my heart shattered into pieces. The man who my family had spent so many years with, who was a wonderful friend to me, and nothing short of a brother to my husband Sean, was just... gone.

My mind keeps running through all the years I´ve known Tommy, from our first meeting in the late 90s, to present years, when we´d been closer friends than ever, and everything in between.

One fond memory comes from the late 00s; I remember the many times we´d come home to find him already there, greeting us with a smile on his face and swearing that "Joe´s car brought me here all by itself!"

He was the kind of guy who could make you laugh so hard your stomach hurt without even trying, who cared about people, who always listened and tried to make them feel better, and who loved his children more than anything in the world. He would always pause whatever he was doing to take a call from one of his kids, no matter what. It really kills me to know he won´t be here to see their lives blossom further.

To the DeLeo family, my deepest condolences, from the bottom of my heart, go to you. I hope that he will be at peace up there, standing with his family and friends who have already passed, and watching over those still here on Earth.

I will miss him and all the memories we shared so, so much, as I know will be the case for the many others who knew him. I´m incredibly lucky to have known Tommy.

I still can´t believe this is real. It´s so hard to wrap my head around him being gone... I really wish this was all just a bad dream.

My "uncle" Tommy has been in my life since the beginning, and I think I´m all the better for it. He was a warm and funny man with a deeply kind heart, and he always committed to showing up wherever he was needed or wanted, from a ride home from school, a birthday party - or even hospital visits.

Him and I had grown even closer these past few years, which just makes this all the more painful; I will always grieve the fact that our time with him was cut short.

My heart goes out to the DeLeo family, as well as friends of his, and all who knew him. I can only hope that he can live on through the memories in our minds, and the love in our hearts.

Signed,

Jennifer Reilly

My prayer & thoughts are with you all.
