My deepest condolences to Dianne and the rest of Tom's family. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I worked with Tom when he was with the Manitoba Government; I was his admin. assistant for the last few years he was with Manitoba Education. He was such a great person to work with. He will be sadly missed by all those who knew and loved him. May you find peace and comfort in the loving memories you have of Tom. - Posted by: Jodi MacDonald (former co-worker) on: Nov 14, 2013

Tom was a good guy who courageously battled an illness he did not deserve. My thoughts are with Dianne, her girls and grandchildren. I will always remember the time Tom worked with Meghan to build her car for Scouts. It was a lot of laughs. Unfortunately, the car was not a winner. But that didn't mean that Tom and Meghan were not winners. May you rest in peace old friend. Cheryl - Posted by: Cheryl Lisoway (Sister-in-law) on: Nov 11, 2013

Tom was a very generous, kind, and caring family man and friend. We enjoyed Dianne and Tom's friendship as neighbours for over 15 years until we moved to Ontario. Even then, we kept in touch over the years. Tom couldn't wait to retire so that he could spend more time travelling in his motorhome. Those retirement plans were cut short by illness but his love of life and his family will always be his legacy. We can't believe that he is gone so soon. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Dianne and family. Wish we could be there with you. Tom will be greatly missed! We are so sorry for your loss. Love, Jan & Dave - Posted by: Dave & Jan Burton (Neighbour and Friend) on: Nov 09, 2013
