Uncle Tom was a patriarch of our family. I will always remember the fun I had visiting him and Aunt Theresa in New Jersey when I was a child. Everyone looked up to Uncle Tom for advice and approval over the years -- He will be missed terribly. Aunt Theresa and my cousins: please accept my deepest condolences. Love, Cousin Donna Vocaturo Cohen, Joel, Tania, Daniel and Andrew in Arizona.
