We the family are sad to say that Tom passed away at the age of 63 at University Hospital while in Palliative Care on December 22. 2022. He was born in Guyana, South America on January 29, 1959 to Jack and Ruth, his Canadian parents. He has lived in London since 1967. Tom attended John Dearness Public School, Oakridge Secondary School and Fanshawe College, where he received his Marketing Diploma. He was a devoted father who loved his family and was there for every achievement no matter how small. Tom is survived by his four children, Daniel, Philip, Valerie and Jonathan, the mother of their children Karen and his sister Jane (Tom) Donaudy. He will be remembered for his work ethic and his ability to live life to the fullest. We will miss Tom’s sense of humour and optimism.
