An interesting person and an involved citizen. We had many conversations, many of them with me jogging on the second line and Tom driving along with the window down! Rest in peace, Tom, and shake up the politics up there!

I an surprised and saddened to hear of Tom’s passing. Tom had more energy than most I know. He contacted me on my father’s passing just over 15 years ago. He let me know that he was my cousin, living just down the road. Tom had more information on my family than I had ever seen. I will miss our conversations and the time we spent together sipping of coffee. My prayers are with you.

Irene, I was so sorry to hear of your Dad’s passing. You were always one of our family. Ever since you got on the school bus many moons ago with Gayle. Red and I were always busy with lots of children and running a business that we were always glad to see your Dad who would bring us up to date on Tottenham news and also how the government was wasting our money. I can emphathize with your Mom since I have been where she is now just a few months ago.
All our prayers will make it a little easier for all of you.

Gordon McInnes says
I am really saddened with the new of Tom’s passing. He was a great friend who could be counted upon for an opinion on anything political. I would suspect that his remaining friends at his branch of the Odd Fellowes will miss his wisdom He was a mentor to me in all my interests in our local affairs. I will sorely miss Tom. My sincere condolences to Eve, many thanks for your call, I am sorry I was not home at the time.
Harry & Rona Rempel says
How shocked and saddened we were to hear of Thomas’s passing. He could always be counted on for a rousing course of political conversation. We may not have always agreed but were always impressed with his knowledge of government and politics. Rest in peace Tom. Our condolences to Evelyn and family.
