After being discharged, he lived in San Diego for many years until returning to New Hampshire in 2001. Most recently, Thomas worked at the SNHU Arena assisting with event set up. He was a kind-hearted person who proudly volunteered at the New Horizons soup kitchen. Thomas loved music, especially playing the drums. He was also a car aficionado who enjoyed trips to the New England Dragway with his family.

Thomas is survived by his siblings, Deborah Tremblay and her husband, Dorothy Hodge, Kathleen Bennion and her husband Stuart, and Timothy Hodge and his wife Sherie; as well as several nieces, a nephew, extended family members and friends.

Condolence & Memory Journal

Tom thank you for the many memories. One of my favorites is when you were home on leave you had driven cross-country in your 1974 Chevy Nova hatchback the gray one. You asked me if I wanted to go for a ride and we went over to Manchester way and I remember going across the Queen City Bridge listening to your 8-track blasting through the speakers of a night at Studio 54. That's one of my many favorite and one of my favorite CDs. Thank you for your devoted service of many years to our country the good old USA. Rest in peace my big brother. Love Dottie XOXO...
