Remembering Tom. How he moved a very old shed from Central Ave in Warren to Tiona with only the paint holding it together! Running into Tom and Nancy in Peppermill. Thanking him for being such an outstanding father to our nieces. Our prayers are with you all. You have so many good memories and he''ll remain close to all of you in your hearts.

Sending thoughts and prayers to all of you with the loss of Tom. A great guy that will be missed by many. So thankful I had the opportunity to chat with him at Shane''''s graduation party this summer and have a recent photo rememberance - a true blessing. So many great memories and special thoughts surround me at this time and know you too have precious memories to carry you through this sad period, but know that Tom is celebrating in Heaven with our Savior. Timing of the service will not grant me the ability to attend but know that my sincere sympathies are with you.
Love Sallie

My heartfelt wishes are sent to all of the family members. I have special memories of Tom - always seeing him as I grew up in Starbrick, PA driving big trucks and moving equipment from site to site. He always had a ready smile and wave of hello. He was a gentle man. Please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers. And although I cannot stop by for a visit on Monday, I will be thinking of you all - love and prayers, Barbie

Cheryll and I want to pass along our sympathies, thoughts and prayers. I have many great memories working on some projects with Tom helping at Keith's or Mary's houses. When I was about 6, I went on my first airplane ride with Tom. I remember him hauling his scooter and motorcycle in the bucket of his backhoe and seeing Tom driving that backhoe all around Starbrick.
Like so many others, we will remember Tom for his happiness, great sense of humor, and helpfulness sharing so much.
Sincerely,
Richard (Dicker) and Cheryll Newark

Dear Mary - I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I know you and your dad were very close and this must be difficult for you. You're blessed to have a whole treasure chest of wonderful memories to look back on in the days and months ahead when you're missing his presence. I will always remember him for his great sense of humor, his devotion to his beloved family, his perseverance and his ability to fully live life. Your dad was respected and admired by all those who knew him. As you move forward just remember that your loss is heaven's gain. :-) Angels are rejoicing with your dad in heaven as he sits at the feet of our Savior, Jesus Christ, enjoying eternal peace. I love you and miss you girlfriend. You're in my thoughts and prayers.
