Sorry to hear about Tom. We were good friends and he was also my best man in my wedding. We had good times after college. He´s the person who introduced me to my wife

Wow, shocker. Bonnie, I am so sorry for your loss. Tommie, myself and all the guys from Wyckoff always had a great time when we were together. Whether it was struggling through college, the bar exams for Tommie (when he chopped a lot of wood), or life in general, we went through those early days supporting each other. Then he met the love of his life. He could have had no better partner in this life. I trust you will find peace knowing that he is in heaven with our lord Jesus Christ.
How you can show support

Just heard about Tom's passing. I have many great memories of him from our days in high school and him a big part of our group of friends. My heart felt condolences to his family

Even if Tom had not introduced his German/English friend to my favorite dish, linguine with clam sauce, he would have had a lasting impact on my life. He was like a brother I never had.
He was a great friend in high school who convinced me to join his fraternity at Rutgers. We roomed together, and tried to keep each other accountable during our "youthful indiscretions." Sometimes successfully.
He was an usher at my wedding. He would pick me up at EWR when I came back to visit NJ. He attended the memorial services of both of my parents. For a half century, he was always there for me, good times or bad.
I miss you my brother, but will always remember the great times we had, and will always be grateful for the blessings you brought to my life.

Neil and I are so sad to hear of Tom's passing. Neil and Tom were friends and ZBT brothers. He was a great guy and has gone too soon. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Oh my the passing of Tom really hurts. I was friends with Tom during high school and into our 20's as we spent time together in Pittsburgh as his parents moved there in the 70's and I went to college there. Spent time with Tom as we spent some weekends on Cape Cod with Larry, Craig and Rich. Tom rest in peace and I will miss you.
