My condolences to Nancy, Tommy Jr and Jennifer. Tom was a wonderful boss and better man. He taught me a lot the most important of which had nothing to do with work. He will be missed greatly but certainly not forgotten,
Rest in peace,

My sincerest condolences to Nancy & Family. I remember Tom as a kind and gentle soul, with always a smile on his face. I also remember the Ruddy Baseball games, not as a participant but as an active and vocal fan. In those wonderful days at Ruddy Electric, we were all like a big, happy family, and Tom certainly contributed to that.
May the fact that so many people loved and respected Tom, be a comfort to his Family.

Dear Nancy and family: My thoughts and prayer are with you. The world has lost a wonderful soul. All the time I have known Tom he was always happy. Playing his guitar or spending time with family. When you came to the clinic for Toms blood work he was always smiling. In this hard time think of all the good times it will help you get through this difficult time

Despite Tommy's long illness, he showed courage through it all. You must be so proud of your son. He is at peace now, perhaps some little comfort at this traumatic time for you.

We are deeply saddened to hear this news of Toms passing. My wife and I have very fond memories of our time living in Oshawa and me working at Ruddy/Westburne Electric side by side with Tom and the gang. We had alot of great times playing on the softball team, going to functions at the Ruddy Pond and Tom and Nancy's cabin. These beautiful memories are forever etched in our minds. Toms carissma, humor , style and friendship made our time in Oshawa something that we longed to go back to. Nancy you will be forever in our thoughts and prayers our condolences go out to you, and your beautiful family.

We offer our heartfelt condolences to my 2nd cousin Tom's family and friends. His inner strength, humour and intelligence are but a few of his qualities. Doug and I will miss his stories and I will forever regret that he and I did not record them nor wrote them down, as we intended. He has taught me another life lesson. Tom will always be in our hearts and minds.
