We were lucky to have Tom as our neighbor, kind and considerate, always sharing the tomatoes from his garden and making sure we had everything we needed. We also knew him as a loving dog dad to Molly and already miss seeing them sit out on the front step together enjoying the sunshine. Sending love to Molly and the family. - Posted by: Chloe (Neighbour) on: Sep 05, 2025

My condolences go out to the far reaching family. My late wife (Audrey) and I both met the family by accident and continued a friendship for years. Tom was proud and spoke highly of Greg and his success in Calgary. A very sincere person with a mischievous grin. It is my pleasure to have known you. Rest well! - Posted by: Garnet workman (Friend) on: Sep 03, 2025

Terry and Tim, my condolences to you and your families on the passing of Tom. I met Tom and Terry at T-4 when I took my vehicles in. Tom was a very nice gentleman and always had a few chuckles whenever I stopped in at the shop. Again, my deepest condolences to all of you. - Posted by: Mark Dzioba (Past customer at T-4 Autobody.) on: Aug 30, 2025

Tom, Terry, Tim & Demetrios- my 4T or T4 Angels when we came to get help (and it was many times) we received just wonderful work and friendship. Tom was such a level headed person and made me feel "it will all be ok" and it was later on when Demetrios became the front man he learnt from the best my thoughts are with all the family and there are many God Bless you all.

When I saw the obit. it was "Oh NO", Tom was a special person. Always happy to see you, big smile friendly word and eventually a joke or two, "Did you hear the one about the...". Tom was the PR person for T4 by his friendly nature and outgoing personality. A talented musician and artist as well. T4 was that place us Inglis people would gravitate to for some back home news, friendly words and a taste of that simpler life that we all missed. My Condolences to Tom's family, we will not be able to attend his funeral as we are on a trip. Tom will be missed by many. - Posted by: jerry maryniuk (Friend for 70 years!) on: Aug 30, 2025
