My cousin Tom was a wonderful person with a big heart. He always had a great smile and conveyed love of his immediate and extended Liott family. As a Police Officer and Chief, he put himself in harm's way to protect and serve others. His service was exemplary.
Please accept our sincerest condolences and best wishes. - Peter A. Altavilla and Family

I knew Tom to be kind, thoughtful, genuine, and a very caring person. Although distance did not allow us to see each other often, he will be missed.
