Thomas Anthony Rewa

Tom was an exceptional man, beloved by all that knew him. His smile could light up the room and his quick wit often produced jokes that would make anyone laugh. He loved his family and friends dearly, always putting others before himself. Tom worked at Thermotron for 43 years, and became a talented welder and fabricator. A true handyman, he used his gifts and wisdom to serve others. It gave him great joy to help those close to him, whatever the project may have been. One of his many projects was building the house he raised his family in, a house that he would live in for the rest of his life.

Tom could often be found working outdoors and visiting with friends in his pole barn. His hobbies included, riding quads with buddies, camping with family, fishing with his wife and grandchildren, taking hunting trips with his son, and hosting cookouts and bonfires in the backyard. As a cook, he loved grilling and smoking meats to share with those he loved. In recent years, he and his wife Cathy took up motorcycling, riding with a group of close friends, they went on many adventures together.

He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and beloved friend. Words can not describe how deeply he will be missed.

Tom was preceded in death by his parents, Arthur and Arlene.
