Dad, it's been sometime since I have written but you are ALWAYS in my thoughts and on my mind. The boys are getting SO big...Vincent talks so well, he's a character alright and Benjamin is growing and still has your cheeks!!! Turkey day is next week and it's going to be hard. I'm home on maternity until January 1, which means when I go back to work it'll be just about a year since you're gone. It's unreal still that you're not here. I miss you so much Dad, your smell, voice, everything. Until I write again. Love always, Reba

Dad, sorry I didn't write you on the 8th...been a little busy. Benjamin Thomas arrived August 28 at 3:09 a.m. during a hurricane!!! We were all safe, he weighed 8 lbs, 4 oz and was 20.25 inches. Looks like you...he has the "Tomski Jowls"! Vincent is a GREAT big brother...he loves his baby brother and is a big helper. I'm going to go now, want to try and get some rest while Benjamin sleeps. Love you always, Reba

Hi Dad...7 long months ago you left us. It's Vincent's 2nd birthday today...you would be so proud of him - he's the smartest kid in town! He's growing up so fast, talks SO much (full sentences already) and thinks you're "sleeping". He still asks about you, whenever Nanny's name comes up he always includes you. Just 3 weeks until the new baby arrives, I'm hoping so much he looks like you!!! We had a little birthday party for Vincent yesterday, you were missing...we had no one to "direct" us to get you seltzer or anything else!!! I know you see everything we're doing and enjoying Vincent's birthday from afar...I'll make sure he knows you wish him a happy birthday. Love always, Reba

Well Dear Ole Dad, it's 6 months today...6 months since you left us. It feels like forever ago but also fast at the same time. We still miss you so much...Vincent says for you to sit on the bench on our back deck. He also tried to call you last week...it was so cute but sad at the same time. Trying to move forward but it's hard...you are ALWAYS on our minds. This morning Vinnie actually thought of how you guys almost kissed each other goodbye the last day we saw you...he didn't realize it was the 6 month mark today until after. I bought a frame honoring you to put your picture in but still can't seem to come around to looking at pics of you...the picture on this site breaks my heart because you look so happy, alive, like yourself. Lots of people always talk about you still...I always talk about you. I've gained support from so many people, people have reached out from so many places which is comforting. Well as always, writing to you is a good and sad thing so I'm going to go now. Just wanted to let you know that as always I'm thinking of you but wanted to write to you today. Love you daddy. Reba

Dad, 5 months since I last heard your voice or gave you a kiss or hug! Miss you so much. Mackenzie turned 5 last week! She is such a big girl now. She also went to kindergarten orientation. She had so much fun riding on the bus! I know you would have loved to see her at her party! Father's Day is coming up....first one that you are not her to celebrate with us. But don't worry because I will be writing a card anyway. Listing all the great memories we have had together. Remember when you said there would be no inheritance left because you wanted to share it with us while we were all here to enjoy! You knew we needed to make the best out of every day. I am very sad every day as I miss you so much but when I am outside and I feel a breeze or find a tranquil spot, I feel you. I feel this calming rush like you are patting me on the shoulder. Love and miss you so much. Keep us all safe. I know you were watching over Mom when she needed to go to the hospital last week. That was super scary as we rushed just like we did to get to you....passed the room we last saw you in. So sad. Hope you are smiling down on us and I am still making you proud. Love, kisses and hugs

Well Dad,it's 5 months today already that you left us. It's still as hard today as it was 5 months ago. Vincent is getting so big, so am I with the new baby. Only 12 weeks to go...hoping the little guy looks like you do, like Ryan did his first year! Vincent was walking around our patio furniture naming seats for everyone and said for you to sit on the bench, there's still a seat waiting for you. I love the picture here on this site, you're so happy. Talk to you soon. Love always, Reba

Dad, We were at the North Warren baseball field last night and I felt you there. As always, I think of you all day and night...but that field holds a special place as that is where you would whistle and the groundhogs would stick their heads out of the holes and the kids would chase them. Mackenzie and Olivia were chasing and looking for them last night and they were asking how Pop-Pop whistled. Still feels like you could come right back into our lives. The last time we hugged was at the top of the driveway before I brought Mackenzie to school. I often stand up there to just feel comforted knowing that was the last time we saw each other. Sad and happy at the same time. I cry every day still and it was tough Mother's Day. You are truly missed every day but on those special occasions it is harder. Father's Day will be the hardest. Don't worry, the kids will be making cards. Wish you were here to cheer on the kids at their games. They continue to excel at everything. I met two people on Saturday and each had the last name of Thomas, made me smile. There are always reminders everywhere of you. Love you and miss you and these past 4 months have felt like an eternity yet feel like you were just here. Every Saturday I get this shakey feeling over me when I look at the time and remember when you passed. Love and miss you Dad~

Dad - this message is 2 days late but I thought of you all day Sunday. It was Mother's Day - sorry I didn't write then. We used the red cups on Sunday that you bought for Nancy and I right before you died...so you were with us as always on Sunday! Vincent's going to have a baby BROTHER in August - not sure of the first name but his middle name will be Thomas! Vincent has some how at 20 months mastered car styles - he knows when a JEEP drives by, a minivan, pop-pops car even...the kid is pretty darn smart! He talks SO much now too - says his words very clear. Even swear words. Can't believe it's been 4 months since we last saw you, still makes me cry and my mind still wanders at night. You were in my dream a few nights ago which was nice. Well I'm going to go now. Will be thinking of you, as always! Love, Reba

It's 2 months now that you are gone dad...it has not gotten any easier. Well we're passed the "safe" zone and we've told people that I'm pregnant again...maybe a little Thomas! Mom says NEVER another Tom so if a boy he'll have your middle name. Vincent still calls out your name when he looks at your picture and looks up in the air for you, I did not teach him that, it just started doing it one day. I still can't look at your picture because I breakdown everytime. I miss you dad...Love you always, Reba

Dad, We took Mommy out for her birthday today. First birthday without you there. We had a good time but I looked over at an empty chair the whole time wishing you were in it. We sang to her and when they said make a wish and blow out the candle, well you know what I wished for although it cannot happen. I know you are with us every day but I want to touch you, hug you, hold your hand and hear your voice. Mommy is so strong and she misses you but we talk about you all the time. I still cannot believe you are not going to sit at my kitchen table again, or be in the stands for one of the kids games. Mommy is making sure she is here for all the games and we are making sure she has something to do all the time. Love you and miss you so much. Feels like you are on a 2 month vacation and you should be coming back soon.....xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

Daddy, It has been a month today that my heart was broken. When I got that call at the basketball game, I had a bad feeling. You would have been at the kids games as it was the opening basketball games but the accident made your life a little more complicated. You saved mommy's life-thank you. You swerved and made sure your "lovely bride' survived. I still remember when you called from the hospital and said "now Nancy don't get upset, ok?" and you continued with you & mom were in an accident but everyone is ok. I thanked God that night so much because you were spared your life. I have often said i do not know what I would do without my parents. I know I always told you what would I do without you and you would say that is what fathers are for. I wake up each school day and watch out my bathroom window as I anticipate you arriving with the 4 coffees and breakfast sandwiches for me, you and the kids. How lucky were we to eat breakfast together a few times a week. How many grandchildren eat with their pop-pop and go off to school. The first few days I looked out the front door and hugged the door waiting for you to come. It just hurts so bad because you were my best friend. Each and every day I try to make sense because why would God take such a great man and leave bad people here on Earth. i tell the kids all the time that you did NOT want to die. You wanted to spend all your time with us like you did. They miss you so, kenzie wants to know when you are coming back from Heaven. i want to hug you, hold your hand, smell your cologne, and hear your voice. I cry every day. I think I felt you at church 2 weeks ago when we brought up the hosts. I felt like I was walking on air. So many people miss you. I just saw Morgan Heller and her family today and they were just so upset. What an impact you made on so many people. I love you so much. Just want to say I love you always and forever. Not a second of a day goes by that you are not on my mind. I hope when you fell God caught you in his arms and put you right to sleep with no pain. Mom says you fought so hard to come back to us. I know if it was in your control you would be here. Love you, miss you until we meet again...I can't wait. I know you will be there with open arms...I hope I can still make you proud and have as big of an impact on this World as you have. Love your Baby, Nancy Al is so sad Dad. He lost his buddy. How many father-in-laws have such a close and wonderful relationship with their son-in-laws. The kids really miss you. We talk about you all the time because we shared so much time together that the memeories are endless. Smelled your pillow the other day....hugged it and kissed it. Closest thing to you. love ya

Hi Dad, it's been a long month without you here. I can still smell you. Vincent and I were just at the house and he was calling for Pop-Pop, it's crazy to hear a little baby call for you. I cry all the time dad, I never thought you would leave. I love you and wish you didn't leave us. I hope you didn't hurt, that's my biggest fear. I hope you didn't feel any pain. I'm blabbing on and on but I just wanted to let you know how much I love you and truly miss you. Seeing your picture makes me cry even more, hopefully that will change so I can look at you again. Love you, Rebecca

I was so sorry to hear of Tom's death. He was always such a nice man and always so friendly. I hardly knew him when he first started calling me Bon, whenever he saw me at church. He was always so happy and if he had worries of his own, he never let on. What a nice man. He will be greatly missed. My best to you all.

To Mr. Tomski's Family: I had the distinct pleasure of dealing with Tom when he would come into pay taxes at Rockaway Twp. He was truly one of most favorite taxpayers. Always bubbly and calling me "his" Stephanie. He even met and shook my husbands hand when we ran into each other outside of my workplace. I am so sorry for your loss and can only tell you that Tom left an impression on me for the rest of my life. A true inspiration to humanity. Goodbye dear friend.
