Tom will always be remembered in the Blatchley family as the one that was more excited for reunions than the siblings. Always boisterous and ready for anything. I know you will be there to greet all of us when we make our journey. Our love for this man is never ending. Until we meet again Tom, love you!

As a young teenager , Tom, Frank ,would always be on my case , to a point I tried to dodge them. But as I grew older I began to think of what was happening. I begain to appreciate the careing they gave my sisters, with my other brother in laws Yezz, Warren, Tony. They all became a great crew, Now as they all are together again , I'm sure there looking down, laughing , drinking a beer, saying I hope they listen and do what I lead them do. Tom as we came close and he could depend on me helping, and watching over, I will as long as able to do what you ask of me.   Enjoy the get together you all, and save me a chair. Thx for all and taking care of my sister and brother Jim. May god always be by you all.

In memory of Tom and his brother on laws, Frank Corso and Pat Yezzi, poinsettas were purchased at St John Vianney church to be placed in their names during the holiday season.  May they all be together as they were during many holidays over years!  R I P Tom.

Sorry to read of Tom's passing.     My prayers are with your family.

My condolences to all the Clearys. Your memories will keep him alive in your hearts!

To love and be loved. For all my years, all this guy ever did was love me, care for me, guide me, inspire me. He taught me to be kind and to care for others, especially those less fortunate.

As the son of proud Irish immigrants, he worked hard to provide for all of us, especially my Mom. He showed us love and compassion all of his days as example for how to lead a good life.

I got to spend some quality time with him during the past few months. To remember and celebrate the good times we had. 

I will always be thankful and immensely proud of the life this good Irishman lead. 

I’ll always be his buddy and he’ll always be mine.

I love you Dad. Sláinte.

Tom welcomed my husband and I into the family with great love and graciousness. He was so hospitable. I remember when he and Barbara came out to visit Cynthia and I. Tom, Warren, and his son Danny all went to play golf at Pebble Beach. My husband just walked around with them. They had such a good time. There was always laughter and fun. I’m sorry I didn’t get to know him better. RIP Tom. 
Love Cass

Tom was a dedicated volunteer with the United Way Free Tax Preparation program since 2015. He greeted our clients and helped them get ready to have their tax return prepared, always helpful and cheerful. We will miss him greatly.

I am also fortunate to be a member of the Our Gang group on the west side of Cleveland. We hung out at the playground at Garfield school on West 140th. Tom was one of the older, wiser members. I remember his yellow convertible.  He was a great friend!

Tom was a good Knight he was always there for the Council serving as Financial Secretary for years and serving Our Lady Queen of Peace Catholic Church in so many ways. I always had a good laugh when he spoke his mind, he never minced words and always told the truth.  He was my friend and always will be.

We were good friends with Tom for over 65 years. He was part of what we affectionately called "Our Gang".   

He used to drive the Gang around in his spiffy Ford. All we had to do was toss in a little gas money. 

Our sincere condolences to Barb and her family.

Tom will be missed!.
