Tom proudly served his country in the US Army. He was employed for over 30 years as a maintenance mechanic for the Hoeganaes Corporation in Cinnaminson. The proud father was truly a man of the people as he would talk to everybody. His infectious smile and vibrant personality was loved by all. He loved his family gatherings and was quite often the life of the party with his spunky dance moves. He enjoyed his daily walks, going to the jersey shore with his family and adored his grandchildren. Never has anyone ever spoken ill of this kind man. Tom was an avid Philadelphia sports fan; he loved the Eagles, Phillies, and Sixers. Tom left an indelible legacy of kindness on all he met.
