Thomas proudly served in the US Army from 1964 to 1970. He met his beloved wife Doris at an Oaklyn Dance in March of 1965 while he was home on leave. In the beginning of their relationship they sent many letters over 13 months to each other while he was stationed in Korea. Tom was a dedicated husband, father, grandfather and uncle. He spent his retirement years attending his grandchildren’s events, completing word search puzzles, reading the Philadelphia Inquirer and large print books. He had a huge sweet tooth and would often be seen eating his favorite snacks; cereal or gummy bears. Tom spent many days down the shore with his family, enjoying watching his Philadelphia sports teams, an avid fan of the Mummers and proud of his South Philly roots. He had a long standing tradition of reading “The Night Before Christmas” on Christmas Eve to his family and friends. He will be remembered as a gentleman, for his big heart and his deep faith.
