Tom Zack. Thank you for all the positive energy and great vibes you shared. Your smile, your easy and quick laughter, your genuine concern for others was a bright light of love that shone wherever you were and are. Your presence was a gift that healed and lifted the spirits of others. In a sometimes unkind world, your kindness will be deeply missed. Your peaceful, loving energy will live on in many hearts, thoughts, and deeds.

My deepest sympathy to Tommy's family. Tommy and I developed a friendship during our early elementary school years that lasted for years afterward. We lost touch in later years, but did reconnect from time to time. I've thought about him often and the trouble we got into together. Rest in peace, my friend.

My sympathy goes to the family and friends of Tom Zack. I knew him through Mike Burke and he was a wonderful man. He always had a smile on his face and always made us laugh. He had such a kind heart and a wonderful spirit. My heart breaks as he will be truly missed. He is now an angel in the sky looking down to watch over us. Rest in peace Tom!!!
