With acceptance and reluctance Tom leaves his family: Mona cherished wife of 68+ years, and children Sheryl, Kim (Ramiro), Robert (Norma), and Christine (Philip). He was predeceased by his daughter Lynn Marie (Greg). He took great pride in his thirteen grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren
Tom was also deeply grateful for the love and support of his foster family, whose care and influence helped shape the man he became. Their presence in his life was a source of strength, and he carried that connection with him always.
A proud veteran, Tom served in the Armed Forces and dedicated his career to military service. His commitment to duty, family, and community was a defining part of his life.
Known for his strong values and unwavering loyalty, Tom’s warmth and wisdom touched all who knew him. He will be deeply missed, and fondly remembered.
Funeral Services will be held on Wednesday October 1st, 2025, at Beechwood Funeral, Cemetery and Cremation Services, 280 Beechwood Avenue, with visitation from 11am to 1 p.m., followed by a Celebration of Life at 1pm, reception at 2pm, and interment at 4pm.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to a Charity or Cause of your choice.

We were so very sorry to hear of Tom's passing. It had been so nice to talk to Tom just a few weeks ago. He had been having a rough time of it for a long time but still sounded chipper.Just like he always did. He adored his Mona and all his family.
We will miss him. Many hugs to you all. Anne and Jim
