wife of over 50 years, Sharon; a shining inspiration of enduring love and faith. Thomas'

grandfather. In spare time, Thomas liked to work around the house, play chess, bowl, catch a
Philly Flyers game, and his favorite: golf. He was known for making outstanding meatballs and
for being the ultimate grill master. Thomas loved music and had an unmatched affinity for
classic Doo-Wop. He will be sadly missed by all who loved him and were impacted by him.
