Earl Krow Obituary

In Loving Memory of Earl Thomas "Tom" Krow (September 2, 1947 - July 22, 2025).

Earl Thomas Krow, affectionately known as "Tom," passed away peacefully on July 22, 2025, in Ocoee, Florida. He was 77 years old.

Born in Reading, Pennsylvania, Tom was a proud graduate of Reading High School, Class of 1965. He served his community as an officer with the Reading Police Department and later built a long and successful career in the truck tire sales industry, earning the respect of colleagues and clients alike.

Tom had a deep love for the city of Reading, classic cars, sports, and travel-and above all, cherished the time he spent with his grandkids. Known for his sharp wit and intelligence, he brought laughter and warmth into every room he entered. Even in his later years, Tom was always ready to lend a hand-his generosity and spirit touched many.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Earl L. Krow and Elinor P. Krow (Wilfert).

Tom is survived by his brothers, David and Patrick Krow; his sister, Stephanie Caswell; and his children: Michael and Jeffrey from his first marriage, and Thomas, Christopher, and Amy from his second. He was a proud grandfather to Taylor, Zachary, Alexander, Emma, Brody, Reagan, Sebastian, and Cheyenne. His love and guidance will be missed dearly by all.

Tom will be laid to rest at Forest Hills Memorial Park, 390 W Neversink Road, Reading, Pennsylvania 19606 on Saturday, August 23rd at 11:00 a.m.-among the community he cherished all his life.

Following the service, a luncheon will be provided at

Wyomissing Restaurant

1245 Penn Avenue, Reading, PA 19610

beginning at 12 Noon (approximately a 15-minute drive from the cemetery).

We love and miss you, Dad.

It was great to see the Krow family again at the service. The day was beautiful, Pastor Robert Shuey was fantastic, the service and everything about it was excellent. Dad is back where he wanted to be, in Reading and near his Parents. Jen's side of the family came out to support and pay respects. They are great people. The day was really memorable and special. I hope to never forget it. Dad would have loved it.
