I thank God for the 58 years that I had with Tommy. He was my friend and a loving husband and father to our four children. Tommy was one of a kind and liked by many who were in his company. I miss him every day. Until we meet again, I love you Tommy. XOXO Kathleen.

Dear Aunt Kathleen and family,
I’ll always have fond memories of my Uncle Tommy. He could always bring a smile to your face and make you feel welcome. I have great childhood memories of times with you. When I think of Uncle Tommy I’ll always hear his voice saying “How ya doin there young fella?”
He’ll be missed by many and I’m sure welcomed by those who went before him.
May his soul be at the right hand of God and may he rest in peace.

Our deepest sympathies / Jackie, Liz and family

Dear Kathleen and family
Tommy went from Aqueduct and Belmont ( NYC ) to that big race track in the Sky. Perhaps he is sitting with Secretariat discussing how to win rather than "Breaking Even " for the last forty years.
He has always been a winner to us. He was a good man. Our sincerest condolences. Anne and Mike Z, and family.

Our deepest sympathies to Aunt Kathleen & family. Uncle Tommy was a wonderful, kind, hard working & funny man who was deeply dedicated to his family. Throughout my life I had the great pleasure of visiting Uncle Tommy & Aunt Kathleen many times & always looked forward to seeing them & my cousins. We shared holidays, Sunday family dinners & sleepovers with our cousins. Uncle Tommy always greeted us with a warm Irish welcome, twinkling eyes & a smile. I am thankful that he was in my life & our world is a better & kinder place for having had him in it. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

My heartfelt sympathy and condolences to my Aunt Kathleen and cousins Eileen, Maureen, Kathleen and her family.

I have very fond and happy memories of visits, holiday celebrations and Labor Day weekend barbecues together.

I joke with my family that you know you are a Mylott if some of your favorite memories, visits and vacations revolve around food. Well that still holds true to this day. I recall with a smile and a laugh going to Aunt Kathleen's and Uncle Tommy's and being greeted with Drake's Devil Dogs and Hawaiian Punch. What makes me smile the most and brings a tear to my eye though is the thought I won't ever again hear the greeting I could look forward to every time I saw Uncle Tommy. Do you remember what he always said? He always said, "Hello young lady" I think I was in my early 40's when I last saw my uncle and yes, I was still a young lady. I'm pretty certain that's the last time anyone considered me a young lady so I will remember it fondly and with a tremendous smile every time someone calls me ma'am in the future.

With love always,

Mary Anne

Dear Kathleen and family,my condolences on the passing of your beloved husband, father, and grandfather. I will always remember Tommy for his kindness, great sense of humor, and his devotion to his family. There were always good times whenever we got together. I still remember the day Tommy became a citizen and we celebrated at Ben Masiks nightclub. Wonderful memories of times spent with the two of you. My love to all. Rest in peace, Tommy.

My Uncle Tommy will be greatly missed. I enjoyed going to visit him, my Aunt Kathleen, and my cousins when I was a young child and as I got older. I always referred to him as "my Irish uncle." He was a hard worker, a dedicated husband to my Aunt Kathleen, a great father to his children, a wonderful uncle, a friend to everyone he met, and so much more to so many people. He was full of wit and funny stories.
My deepest sympathy to my Aunt Kathleeen and family.
Love,
Maureen

So sad to hear of uncle Tommy's passing. Cne of life's true chactors. He took me under his wing when I arrived in America and for that I'm forever grateful. I still remember some of his stories of his working life he told over a few beers, a great story teller. Gone but never forgotten .RIP

I am very sad to hear of Tommy passing, we kept in touch over all the years that she was in America. I visited him in America and he came to visit me in Ireland. Tommy was a joy to spend time with, and he always made me laugh. Allow we had not seen each other for many years it was comforting to know he was there. I will miss him and my thoughts and prayers are with Kathleen and the girls. May God bless you all in this time of great sadness. Norah S (Aunt Norah) XXX

We are so sad to hear about Uncle Tommy's passing. We have fond memories of his visits to Ireland and had a great time when we made a surprise visit to Uncle Tommy and Aunt Kathleen when we turned up at his door in Florida. We knew it was his home when we saw the Irish Shamrock on the door. He was a great man with lots of stories, and will be sadly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this time.

It is with great sadness and regret that we heard of our uncle and great uncle Tommy's passing. We enjoyed Tommy's company when he came over to visit all his relatives here in Ireland and more recently when we met up with him, Aunt Kathleen and the family in Florida. They were happy times that we will always remember. May Tommy rest in peace.

I am immensely proud to be Tom Graham's son-in-law. Tom was a great man who took a chance and came to America to start a new life. As he said, "I got to New York on a Monday and on Wednesday, I was on the subway going to work." He was as honest as the day is long. He worked hard to give his wife and children a good, comfortable home. Everyone who met him loved him. I enjoyed being in his presence and will miss him every day for the rest of my life. He gave me my wonderful wife, Kathy. He was a superb grandpa to our son, Donnie. Tom Graham was a real life leprechaun with plaid pants and a Belfast brogue. A man like him comes along only once in a lifetime and it was truly my pleasure to have met him. May the wind be at his back.
