Background
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made. These funds will be used for Tom/Papa's celebration of life, being held on 10/11/25. It will also help his family in this transition of moving due to his passing.
Tom was a man of extraordinary strength and compassion. Even through years of dialysis, he remained resilient, never allowing hardship to dim his light or his love for life. He was a devoted father, grandfather, and great-grandfather who raised his family with kindness, faith, and unwavering dedication.
His home was always open, a place of welcome, warmth, laughter and belonging for all who entered it.
A man of wisdom and curiosity, Tom spent countless hours reading, always eager to learn and share knowledge.
Each Christmas, he brought joy to children and families by playing Santa Claus, carrying the true spirit of generosity and love wherever he went.
His heart was as big as his presence, he gave selflessly to those in need, offering not only resources but also comfort, wisdom, light, hope and dignity.
Those who knew him will remember his laughter, his humility, and the way he loved without condition.
He was a living example of grace, strength, unconditional love and kindness, and his legacy will live on through the many lives he touched. Contribute
