So sorry to here of the loss of Tom. I met Tom when he visited our neighborhood(Elberon)when he was about 12 years old. Tough kid I thought! We met officially on the wrestling team back in LB JrHS, with Coach Joe Gasser, and we were buddies through High School, always a funny cat, and tough dude. We went to LB Votech auto and had the best time there- we called each other "Bubs" a tease on Mr. Howard cause he could never say bulb, it came out bub. I can't remember last time we saw each other, but we called each "Hey Bubs" with a big laugh whenever it was. Warm regards with deepest sympathies, Tim Dewyngaert.

We will all miss Tom tremendously I especially remember his laugh and his friendly demeanor. He was a great wrestler & teammate! I remember him being really happy at our wrestling re-union and said, to me Rich I haven't been here in thirty years. I thought of him just last week driving through his complex. My heart goes out to the Dellanno family and just know that I will pray and think of him often.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
