Daughter Jennifer O’Brien, and his two grandchildren, Lucy Smith and Ryan Smith as well as his sister Ellen Morris and many nieces and nephews.

Thomas was a loving husband, father, and Pop- Pop. He had a wonderful sense of humor, a love for history, and was very hardworking. His family is comforted with knowing that he is at peace having received his final place in heaven. We love him and miss him forever.
