I worked with Tom at Calvert Cliffs sorry to hear this news. He was a great guy and a class act. My thoughts and prayers go out to his wife and family. Rest in peace Tom

I enjoyed working with Tom in the 80s. One of his favorite expressions was "there is no retirement from nuclear power". Unfortunately, I guess he proved his point. RIP and may God be with you.

One of the "Pickering Six" American "Green Men".
His NukeWorker Handle, 1E4, was the selection you entered to get a Cappucino from the coffee vending machine.  He coined it as the code for taking a coffee break.
RIP Tom.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family Tom.  I wish I had the chance to tell you how much I learned from you especially nuke history.  Thanks Tom for your help and support when I was getting into Hp on my first project.  Rip always.

I had worked with Tom on numerous projects in the past years and will miss him much. I had met his wife and then new daughter 10 years ago and feel deeply for their loss. Tom was our unofficial moral officer at our last assignment together, Tom, I'll have a "meatlovers" in your memory, RIP my friend.

I'll never forget Tom's passion for COFFEE.  He was definitely dedicated to the coffee break cause, when we were at Yankee Rowe.

Amen to that!!!!

More passionate than WB or myself for that matter, and that's saying something!!

I'm saddened to know you're gone Tom.

I was very surprised and saddened when learning that Tom had passed away.
Enjoyed knowing Tom while working Hunters Point last year.  Tom's humor will be missed.  He gave a new meaning to the term  "BBQ".....we always enjoyed BBQ Thursday and for that matter...any other day of the week that he could get someone to drive down to Perkins BBQ in San Francisco.  Tom was a fine man and my heart and prayers go out to his family for their loss and to his many friends.  Tom will be missed.
