On May 3, 1980 at the Chapel of St George in Mohegan Lake, NY (the old St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church), he married Mary Ann Branchizzi; she survives him at home. He worked various different jobs stemming from collections and transportation, and later in life he worked as a patient-sitter at Vassar Brothers Medical Center in Poughkeepsie, NY; a job that he thoroughly enjoyed.

He truly had a infectious smile, and could always liven a room with his laugh. Along with his beloved wife of 44-years Mary Ann McCullough, Tom is survived by his two sons: Thomas P. McCullough III and Colin J. McCullough. Along with his parents, Tom was predeceased by his brother Kevin McCullough in 2001, and his dear mother-in-law Elizabeth 'Betty' Branchizzi in 2013.
