It is with profound sadness that we, the family, announce the passing of Thomas Francis DePalo. While striving to become a lawyer, he was, unfortunately, diagnosed with Lung Cancer. During this time, he became his own advocate by researching and studying all about his condition. Always showing great poise and strength, he never showed a sign of slowing down. Always with a smile on his face and a book in his hand, Thomas became a teacher, a philosopher and a friend to many.
Although his life was not as long as we would have liked it to have been, the everlasting impression that he has left on his family and friends will forever be treasured. He was called back to the arms of the Lord on December 6, 2022. He is survived by his mother Anne, father Mario, brother Joseph, all of his immediate and extended family and friends, and his best bud LuLu. The one thing we can truly say about his spirit is that he left everything he came across better than how it was before.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations be sent to Foundation for Metabolic Cancer Therapies at the link here
