Dear Tom and Family,
So sad to hear of the passing of your dad and loved one. May eternal lights shine upon him and may be rest in peace.

To Mi Familianeighbors from Hudson Avenue, in the words of Simon and Garfunkle "What a time it was," from the pitter patter of little feet calling out "I" for my Mom, Irene to forever being known as "More Augie." Our open door policy should be experienced by all kids, it truly does take a loving village and we were blest to have the Cheplic's enrich our's a little more. Although I thoroughly enjoyed pinachle, long discussions, Sambuca and expressos with Tom. The day I came home to Cosmo's relative contractors sitting on ladders and in the stairwell (which they were in the process of replastering)sitting back with opera music blasting from my parents apartment. I walked in and suggested my Dad (who at that time Maryann had lovingly tagged "Wolfman Jack" turn the music down so Cosmo's relatives could finish the ceiling or they'll never get done. Dad lowered the opera and the guys went back to work. RIP my friend, Mom and Dad may be hosting his heavenly banquit and not a doubt in my mind Irene will greet Tommy with arms wide open and her best fare on the table. In conclusion I send you my love and peace and our many angels from our village looking down upon my dear Cheplics. May Tommy and all of you rest in God's peace and good. Love and Peace, More Augie

I know your husband, dad, grandfather is looking down on you and wishing you weren't so sad.  Hold all the happy memories in your heart and remember how much you were loved by him.

Dear Mary Ann,
I was so sorry to learn of Tom's death. I met Tom before you and I worked together. We'd often chat at the Oak when we were buying lottery tickets or at Webster when we would be waiting for Sydney and Rex to be dismissed. I will miss his welcoming smile and his always pleasant demeanor. Please know I am holding the Cheplic family in prayer during this difficult time. May Tom rest eternal.

To the Cheplic family, I am so saddened to hear about the loss of Dad...what a wonderful, happy, upbeat, joyous guy he was....and he's left a great legacy with his children and wonderful grandchildren...Tom the Mailman lives on in a lot of people's hearts in Weehawken....it's a sad day, because he brought a lot of joy to so many people...God bless him

The loss of Tom is a loss to the world. He was one of the finest people I ever knew. I will always hear his words, " We're All brothers! ", echoing through the Union City Post Office. My deepest condolences to his family.

                                                                          Greg La Croce
