Thomas was born on September 24 th , 1938 in Detroit, Michigan. He had come from a large, Irish/German family with ten brothers and sisters (listed above). He married the love of his life, Sharon Ann Greenan, in July 1960. Thomas retired as a truck driver for Kraft Foods. Sharon and Tom spent 59 wonderful years together and had two children, Debra and Thomas Jr., followed by three grandchildren Marisa, Sabrina and Trevor. Thomas and his wife Sharon were attached at the hip: one could not be without the other. The two went everywhere and did everything together. Thomas was truly a devoted and wonderful husband, father; grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend to all. He would do anything for his loved ones, just to be of help, and loved to talk and get to know everyone he encountered. Thomas also loved spending time with his wife Sharon and their family, working on his cars, maintaining his home by himself while still having time to be a master chef and baker. While Thomas was a simple man, he was someone who held great impact on many lives. Tom and Sharon were the backbone of their family, and are now reunited again in Heaven.
