I remember you telling me many times how I could be better at what I do at work and what life throws my way. I was always inspired by our talks. I will tryuly miss you. ~ pork chop ***tearrr***

Tom you touched  more lives than you know this side of heaven. We will miss you, but we rejoice that you have finished your race, and you finished it well. Your legacy of love is being passed on by every life you have touched. We thank God for your life, your love and your legacy. May God bless Annie and your children, as they go through life remembering you.

Tom was one of the best men that God has ever created. He loved his family and friends with his whole, beautiful heart. You will be remembered forever, PaPa.

My deepest sympathy to Annie & family.  Tom will truly be missed by all who knew him.  I feel blessed to have known him.  I could not have asked for a more wonderful & understanding boss when we worked at Telhio Credit Union.  I will keep the family in my thouhgts & prayers.

Dear Anne,  I will always be in debt to you and Tom. You are two of the most unselfish, loving people I have ever met. You adopted my daughter in law and gave her a family and a home filled with love and values. You therefore gave my grandson that same kind of experience. You both were very accepting and loving towards my son and I thank you both from the bottom of my heart. Someday we will all be together again with Tom. Until then may God hold you close  and comfort you and your family. I loved you  Papa Tom.

Colleen and I were good friends in high school and we rode the same school bus so our rides to and from school included Ish, Skip and Tom.  What a happy family, always laughing, always smiling and always playing tricks or jokes or pranks on each other and each others friends.  Tom always had the best smile and was just a joy to know and be around. My memories are fond and will always bring a smile to my face.  He will be missed.   Trudy Marotta

Dear Anne and family, there are special people in this world who can always put a smile on someone else's face just by meeting them - you and Tom are such people.  Both of you have shared so much of yourselves and your home with others, which has been a blessing to so many.  You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.  With respect and sympathy, Kathy Bruner (Go Bucks!)

There are too many to list on here, but mainly just to hear his voice after I would disappear for months on end. He was never upset or held it against me. He always showed me love, and made me feel welcome. His smile was enough to bring me into a better state of mind at any given moment. I'll always remember you papa. You were the best.

Thank you for sharing yourselves with so many.  You and Anne have impacted so many children (my personal favorite, of course, Mandela).  Thank you for opening your hearts and your home.  Deanna Herold

Tom aka Hummer aka MY Sugar Daddy( stop smiling only Chris and Anne no your true identity to me)
I have known you for over ten years and you have been a very special person to me and my family. I think we had a relationship that only a very few understood. I love you and I miss you. There are so many special memories that I will carry with me. You are gone but never forgotten. 
Love you Tada. 
(Walker and Family)

I did not know Thomas, but it looks like he was a wonderful man. I am Colleen's co-worker in N.Y. and we are thinking of all of the family with great sympathy.

Collen and family, I am terribly sorry to hear of your loss.   May you find some measure of comfort that he is now at peace.  Thinking of you, Wendy Spier

Though I didn't know him well I do know for a fact that he was a great man because he made my lifelong sister/friend happy for many many years!  May GOD receive him with peace and may GOD also hold you Ann with the love that Tom held you with for eternity!  I am truly sorry for your loss and I love you!  
Charlene Pittman/Frink and family

i will never forget the time mama annie and papa took me to a concert while they were celebrating their anniversary and we were squished so tight .. papa put his arm around me and said "i guess you're my daughter!" haha. i laugh evrytime i think of that. R.I.P. papa. and all of the family in my prayers!

Tom was funny and tenderhearted. I used to tell people he was like a big ol' teddy bear. He made Ann's life so full of happiness. He truly valued her and deeply loved her and those children of theirs. God bless the whole family. I am praying for each of you.

Proverbs 10:7 The memory of the righteous is blessed. Nicole, my prayers are with you and your family.

The only man that could nick name me L A and get away with it.

Tom could always make a joke out of everything!!!! He was a wonderful person who gave unselfishly to anyone & everyone!!! You will be missed dearly by many my friend!

What a great Uncle he always will be!  Lucky for me he was my Uncle!  Always going to hold a special place with me in my heart.  I am really going to miss our phone calls we had almost weekly!

Forever in my heart  !  I love you !
