Thomas McFadden Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Gaskill-Brown Funeral Home & Cremation Services LLC on May 10, 2022.
On Saturday, May 7, 2022, Thomas J. McFadden Jr. passed away at the age of 65 after a hard-fought battle with cancer. He was predeceased by his mother, Barbara, his father, Thomas, and sister, Kellie. Thomas was a lifelong resident of Merchantville, a 1976 graduate of Pennsauken High School, and a member of the Knights of Columbus. He was a loving husband to Teresa "Terry" McFadden for 43 years. Together they raised three sons, Thomas McFadden and his wife, Jenn; Ryan McFadden and his wife, Carolina; and Shane McFadden.
He was a proud Pop to three grandsons, who were his pride and joy: Kaleb, Brady, and Quinn McFadden. He is survived by his brother, Patrick McFadden (Lee Ann), his Aunt Eileen Stallings, as well as sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, nieces, nephews, and cousins.
For the past 26 years Tom, along with Terry, were the proud owners of TNT Pest Control, a business he started with his mother, Barbara. He loved what he did, and quickly became known as the "Bug Man." He was able to build long-lasting and meaningful relationships in the community with his customers, who became more like friends and family.
When Tom wasn't working, you could find him at various sporting events, supporting not only his grandsons, but the teams and leagues as well. Until recently, Tom was an avid runner, completing over 25 marathons, slowly, with friends and family. His love for weekend getaways and trips to the Jersey Shore were always memorable, thanks to the people he brought with him.
Tom will be missed by so many for his generosity, his empathy for all, and his overall positive outlook on life. Honoring his request, there will be no services or viewing, but rather a celebration of life, which will be held on Thursday, June 2nd, from 6-10pm at the Pennsauken Country Club, 3800 Haddonfield Road, Pennsauken. Contributions may be made in his memory to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital or the Shriners Hospitals for Children.

We were saddened to hear the news that Tom passed away. He was great fun to be around and he's created many great memories for not only himself but, his Class of 76 classmates. Always a smile and a slap on he back to greet you. I know he will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Terry and with the boys and their families.

My deepest sympathy to the McFadden family

Tom was truly the best guy ever.
He was my " mouse " guy. He helped me so much with that.

We shared a beer or two on occasion when he came around to do his job. Fun conversations

I´m going to miss his smiling face.

Tom a " toast " to you.

Thomas was more than a friend he was part of the Merchantville family. I grew up on woodbine avenue one block away. I am so sorry to have lost Thomas - we called him Micky growing up and if there is anything I can do to help in this time of sorry I am a phone call away. Please don´t hesitate to call me Terry. Sending prayers to you and your family with my deepest sympathy.
