Tom,
	This past holiday season you were constantly in my thoughts.  All the Christmas when you guys would come into town, all the game nights! And the breakfast’s you & I enjoyed together at that Diner in Lakewood. The family reunions, Dan’s High School Graduation. The night when we took Dan and all his buddies to their favorite bar, for their College Graduation. Your Mom doing Shots with us  “The Three Wiseman” and she rocked!!  Sharon’s Surprise Birthday Party.  The trip to Vegas for my birthday omg did we have fun, The list goes on.
Mom & Dad adored you. There isn’t one person in the Miller / Mason family that didn’t love and respect you; you were just that kind of person, well-liked and just a fun kind of guy.  You are always in my prayers    Bud


I just received the news of Tom's passing, and was shocked to lose such  a wonderful friend. I didn't know Tom at AT&T, but after we retired, we joined the same poker group and had many enjoyable years competing against one another. We became very close friends and Tom, who as you know went into the home repair business, did several jobs at my home to resuscitate my sagging ceilings. Tom and I had a lot of laughs together and seemed to see eye to eye on just about everything. He was one cool guy. Tom hosted a memorable poker game while living in NJ and Sharon made an absolutely delicious stew that my stomach and I remember fondly. Tom was a very fine human being and I will miss him very much. My thoughts go out to his family for this sad loss. 


My Dad has always been my greatest hero.  When I had a question, he always had an answer.  When I had a problem, he always had a solution, and when I was feeling down, he always found a way to pick me back up again, set me on the the right track, and give me that subtle push to get me moving until I was once again able to continue on my own.  It's hard to believe that he's not with us in person.  I knew that he couldn't stay forever...just didn't know that his passing would be so soon.  Tom Kolibab was the greatest man I ever knew, Vietnam Veteran, Lineman for Ohio Bell, Division Manager for AT&T, Owner of Kelley's Home Maintenance, Father of a King's College Graduate, and Husband to the Greatest Wife the world has ever seen, my mother Sharon Kolibab.  We're not exactly sure how to continue without you, and we expect the road to be difficult, but we can rely on the knowledge and wisdom that you have shared with us, and the sound of your voice in our heads inspiring us to continue, take care of each other, and ones we love.  We will miss you dearly, but my mother and I know that this is not the end.  We will see you again when God calls us home, so I won't say Goodbye, just see you later, when we can finally be a family again.  Dad you are and always will be my Captain America!
Love Always, Your son Dan

To my sister Sharon and nephew Danny,

I am so very sorry that we lost Tom.  Not only did I love him, but, I liked him and respected him so very much.  He was a good man and was always very good to me and Mom and Dad as well.  I will miss him very much.

If the two of you ever need anything, just reach out to me.  You are in my prayers always.

I love you,
Suzanne
