Suzanne - I just bumped into Marge Jalbert yesterday who told me about Tommy. I am so so sorry. I'll always remember fun times as kids at the lake. I called Carl today, and he sends his sympathy and prayers. I'm sure he will be in touch. God Bless You all.

Mark:
As we go through life struggling to keep our values and have a positive outlook at life defines Tom. He always made a bad situation look good and a lesson learned. My heart goes out to his family and I will always remember comparing military stories and how much he loved being the one with the better story. Tom may you rest in peace and will always be a part of my life and I am sure hundreds of others.

Dear Trudeau Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Tom always meant the world to me and treated me just like his own son. I was currently planning to take a trip up to see your family after all of these years, and I especially wanted to see Tom. I have wonderful memories of the time that I spent with Tom and your family.

Sue, Mark, & Family,
It is with great sadness that I write this note today. I have had the pleasure of being both a friend and co-worker of Tom’s over the past 24 years. He has taught me many things about myself and about life in general over the course of those years. Tom was the consummate professional and taught me above all other things to work hard and give 100% of yourself in all that you do. The greatest lesson that Tom taught me was that happiness in life is not gained by acquiring material possessions, and climbing the corporate ladder, but instead, by being a loving and caring husband, father, and friend. For that advice, I will be forever grateful. I will miss my almost daily conversations with Tom and truly count myself as a blessed person for having had the privilege to be considered his friend. “There are so many things”.

Dear Mark and Trudeau family,
We would like to express our deepest sympathy for your loss. Tom made all of our jobs at National Grid so much easier with his expertise. Each of us spent countless hours on the phone over the years and every conversation was always pleasurable. He was a dedicated employee but more than that he was a great friend.
