Publish in a newspaper

Thomas A Summer was born on May 8, 1947 and entered into eternal heaven on September 19, 2025. Tom was preceded in death by his father, Dewey Odell Summer and his mother, Colette Margaret (nee) Rooney. Tom is survived by cousins and friends.

Known for his love of cats, photography, geology, history, and the word of God. Tom was always thinking of others and had a kind heart. He was devoted to donating to charities for those that were less fortunate. He always had an interesting story to tell and he will be greatly missed. As Tom would say, "Take care and God bless you."

On Saturday October 11th there will be a celebration mass that will take place at 11 am at Our Lady of Perpetual Help, 342 S. Chillicothe Road in Aurora. Followed by interment at Calvary Cemetery, Cleveland.
