Grade school friend , Tom was on our basketball team. He was the last guy I know to shoot two handed from between his knees free throws .He also during our SRA reading years was way ahead of our class(school) guess you could say 1st of those speed readers .Toms hair was sooo red he had the team nickname Cherries .Those were the days Will play again some day .
Dana, our deepest condolences for your loss. Jerry and I pray for your peace and comfort during this very difficult time. Tom was an important member of our wonderful community and he will be missed. Warmest regards, Grisel and Jerry♥️
Tom had such a good soul. We will miss him. I’m so glad we got to spend time with him at Heather’s wedding 2 1/2 years ago. I remember him sitting down with my son, Jason and telling Jason all kinds of good things about my dad. I thought that was very sweet of him.
Dana,
My thoughts & prayers are with you…
Dear Dana and Richard, I am so sorry to hear about Tom’s passing. I had no idea that he was ill. Like Chris, he was a bigger than life person. I’m so glad that you three had so many good years together. You are in my thought and prayers. Love you!

My Dearest Dana,

To always be remembered.
To never be forgotten.
To have been so loved. And to have so loved.
Your place in so many lives lives on.
Peace Everlasting Tom Moriarty.
What a great sens of life and love and full-bodied appreciation of others Tom brought to all those who knew him. Knowing him ever since he came into the life of my treasured friend Dana Collins –and then their marriage — and always receiving news of their pride and joy , their son Richard, uplifted my life. Sending love and prayers to Tom and Dana, blessings in my life. — Carol Soucek King
We feel overwhelmingly sad but thankful to have known Tom who was an intelligent caring person who cherished his family and friends.

A fine portrait of the Irish Fighter and Santa Monica surfer boy. We would love to join the memorial there.
