Tom was a graduate of Lynbrook High School where he was a star athlete in both football and Lacrosse. He went to West Point and Hofstra University, where he continued his athletic and educational achievements. Tom was a natural salesman with a tireless work ethic. He was successful in a large array of business ventures throughout his life – there was literally nothing in which he didn't believe he could find success.

Tom was the life of every party, dancing, telling stories, and cheering up any gathering with his infectious laugh. And of course, he loved hitting the golf course with his close friends. He most looked forward to celebrations and holidays with family, from which he leaves a wonderful and lasting legacy.

Friends are invited to join Tom's family for a celebration of life on December 9th, 2023 at 11am the Mackey Funerals and Cremations at Woodlawn Memorial Park, 1 Pine Knoll Drive, Greenville, SC 29609.
