Thomas Tonti

THOMAS TONTI, age 40, of South Euclid, OH, passed away on January 30, 2025. Beloved son of Carmen J. Tonti and the late Kelly Ann Tonti (nee Spackman); dear brother of the best sister ever, Mary Perry (Christian); best friend and grandson of Adrienne Spackman and the late Thomas Spackman and Antonio and Mary Tonti; silly uncle of James and Julianna Perry; cherished nephew and cousin to the Daley, Eberlin, Gromek, Pekoc, Spackman, Tash, and Tonti families.
Tommy had the love of many cousins and many friends. He stayed close to Mayfield Road, starting working at La-Z-Boy Furniture and working in kitchens all over including Eat at Joes, the Purple Shamrock, the Mill Tavern, Spectators, and others. He loved cooking, he could make a mean Chicken Parm, tasty chicken wings, and a mess in the kitchen. He rooted for Cleveland sports on his couch while drinking Pepsi and played John Madden football. He enjoyed watching and talking about history documentaries with his grandma and laughed at every new South Park episode. Tommy loved to bust balls, make you laugh and had a sarcastic sense of humor- nothing was off limits. He liked to tell stories, entertain, bring the party and light up a room. He didn't take life too seriously but was happy to get down to business when needed. He was always a phone call away. If you asked him what he was doing he'd say "I'm sitting here thinking about you." People say he was just "one cool guy", "one in a million" and even "just like his father." He was a momma's boy at heart and now gets to be with her. Tommy had a smirk on his face, and struggle in his heart. He took the path least traveled and will be missed by many.
