To Carol and the entire Lee family,
Tom and his brother Pat and all of your family have left an indelible imprint upon the history of the Teamsters Union , everywhere they traveled. Whether Tom was driving a truck, working at Plymouth or Suffolk County or just meeting old friends or new, he always touched those relationships with a smile and of course his contagious laugh.
He made a difference to those around him and to everybody he met.
Building relationships that lasted a lifetime anchored by the Lee loyalty is in Tom’s DNA. It’s not something that can be bought, it’s just there and he did it well.
Now, his journey continues to the promise he received when baptized and like his loyalty to all of you and to me and others, his next road trip will be with the most loyal of all, his God.
Loyalty and love ❤️ pay off forever.
Gods Bless you Tom, you deserve the promise?❤️?
