Devoted husband of Lynn (nee Pacey). Loving father to Stephen (Cherie), Michael (Nina), and Jennifer (Chris). Proud “Papa” to Rease and Brielle. Tom was an avid car and boat enthusiast and loved every sport. He will be sadly missed by many relatives and friends. Cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life will be planned later this year. Donations can be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation or to a charity of your choice.
Lynn we are so very sorry to hear about Tom. Our deepest sympathy to you and your family. Debby & Tom Jackson
I was shocked and saddened to read about Tom's passing, especially after talking to a healthy, normal Tom just days earlier. Tom was one of the best machine analysts/technicians that I have ever worked with. He was the go-to guy for problem solving and advice. A truly nice person with a great sense of humour, and a knowledgeable car guy to boot. What a combination! Elsie and I send our sincere sympathies to you Lynn and your family.
Our sincere condolences to you and your family. Tom will be missed by many. Gord and I will be thinking of you in the days to come.
