To the Tangie Family, I was very saddened to hear the news that Tom had passed. I started working at Mimico.C.C in 1975 and it was there that I met and worked with Tom. Tom was truly one of the good guys, always with a smile, a little joke and a nick name for just about everyone. I was sad to see Tom leave Mimico but he had other plans. We had some great times playing hockey and socializing. A one of a kind! He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with Tom and his family. Angelo Sperduti, Bolton, Ont.

Both my partner Ruth, who worked as support staff with Tom in Downsview and Durham, remember fondly Tom's kindness and humour. We also happily recall the joy he obviously had in bringing his grandchildren to OPSEU's and OPSSU's seasonal parties. Our sincerest sympathies for your loss of Tom.

I first met Tom in the mid-80s when he worked at Mimico CC. We were both Local Presidents and active in our Union, OPSEU.
I have a vivid lasting memory of Tommy dressed in a toga, when we were doing a skit together at a Union educational. We both ended up working at OPSEU and I found him to be a compassionate man, with a great sense of humour.
In the Corrections vernacular: he was solid.
RIP and Solidarity, Brother Tom. Miigwetch.
