Thomas J. McCann, age 74, passed away at home with loved ones nearby, on Thursday October 11, 2018. From his birth in Pittsburgh, PA, on April 2, 1944 to his death on Thursday, Tom was dedicated to his work and his family. Growing up in a family of nine children, where he was the middle child, Tom learned early how to make the most of what you have and always give 100% to any endeavor.

In his later years, Tom developed software for car dealerships and successfully ran his own business. He was preceded in death by his parents: William E. McCann and Dorothy R. McCann and his sister, Dorothy Jean Kosinski. Tom is survived by his loving wife of 25 years, Tammy McCann; his four children: John McCann, Tina McCann, Sandi Heffernan (Shawn), and Laura McCann; his stepchildren: Jared Brown and Lacy Brown Harding (Richard); his grandchildren: Nicholas, Melody, Olivia, Gavin, Grant, Ziva, Kiana, Aryn, and Connor; his siblings: William McCann, Virginia Shar, Eileen McCann, Mary Ellen Davis, Regis McCann, Rita Staudt (Edward), and Michael McCann (Lesley); and his many nieces and nephews who were dear to his heart.
