Dear MaryAnn and the Tompi family, My deepest sympathy's are with you at this time. I worked with Gene for many years at #3 Cold Strip. Gene was one of the first people I started working with when I hired in at Inland in 64. Gene was great to work with and taught me a lot back than when I was new. I have many good memory's of that time and also enjoyed attending the Saturday noon lunch's in Griffith with Gene. I always enjoyed talking with Gene and reminiscing. My prayers are with you

Mrs. Tompi, David, Kathy, John and the entire family, please accept my sincere sympathy. I was very sorry to hear about your loss. I always remember Mr. Tompi as being quiet but very funny, and always ready to tell a joke. He and the rest of the family will always be associated with the good memories I have about Blessed Sacrament. May he rest in peace.
