Tomas was a very dear friend of ours when we lived in Winnipeg before 1996. He was the most kind and considerate person we knew and never (never) hesitated to offer a helping hand and advice and his companionship. We will always remember Tomas with deep affection and love. We often thought of Tomas and his beautiful family after we moved away from Winnipeg and although we have not kept in contact with him and his family we always thought of him, Zelia and his children, James and Sandra, as part of our own family and we will continue to do so. We offer our deep condolences to his family and we will miss Tomas in our heart. - Posted by: Gordon, Ann and Shaun Hook (Friends in Sydney, Australia) on: Jan 07, 2015

Dear Uncle Tomas, you were a wonderful and caring man who was always there to help anyone in need. Despite the distance between our families you were always there for my mother - Sara your sister. We remember fondly your numerous vists to Ontario and the many stories associated with those long drives with the kids and no air conditioning. I will always remember you for your smile, laugh and many giggles. To Aunt Zelia, Sandra, Jamie and your respective famlies - you can take comfort in knowing that Uncle Tomas is now resting peacefully with the Lord. He was very proud of all of you. He will be missed by many but never forgotten. Rest in peace Uncle Giggles - Posted by: Mario Coutinho (Nephew) on: Jan 04, 2015

When we think of Tomas we think of family!! No matter what or how he felt he would meet his grandchildren out on the deck with a hug!! He truly was a patient kind man... We so enjoyed him and his family over the years. Peace be with his family knowing he is out of pain. God bless his family to continue without him. - Posted by: Loraine and cornel stuart (Neighbors) on: Jan 03, 2015
