To Dale and the O’Grady Family; On behalf of myself and my family please accept our sincere and deepest sympathy for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time in your lives. I worked with Tom for 4 years at ACOA and can honestly say that I had never met a more likeable person. He was very professional and respectful towards his co-workers and always had a good story to tell. I chatted with Tom on many occasions; mostly about Labrador as my mother was from there and her mother’s side of the family were descendants of Ireland. He was very interested in the History of her family and the area of Labrador they lived. Tom will surely be missed and fondly remembered. Rest in peace Tom and God Bless…!!! Craig Michael (Trudy & Amanda)

Ned, Margie, Rosie and Pat. It is with the deepest sorrow that I hear of Tom's passing. I feel as though I have lost a brother that I haven't seen for a while. As you know I spent as much time in your family home during my early years as a young man as I did in my own and they were great times! Tom always had a ready smile and a warm comfortable laugh. He will be missed by many but his memory will survive us all. God be with you in this time of sorrow.

Margie, Rosie, Ned & Pat. I am truly heartbroken by Tom's passing. It is like loosing a brother for me. As you know I spent as much time at your family home during my early years as a young man as I did at my own. And they were always good times. Tom had the O'Grady sense of humour and always had a smile and a laugh. I don't remember ever seeing him down. He lived life to the fullest and brought happiness to the people around him. My deepest sympathy to you his family and may God be with you at this trying time.

Dale, Sean, Sharon & Tanya, Heartfelt sympathy to you all at the loss of such a great man. I had the pleasure of working daily with Tom at ACOA. Every evening before he left the office, he would tease me about the amount of work he had accomplished that day-always laughing at my reaction. Tom was a gentleman, a true friend, a super co-worker, always smiling. He was so proud of you-his family. I feel so privileged to have met & had the opportunity to have worked with Tom. He touched a lot of lives including mine. As you lay Tom to rest, thank God for the wonderful times you had together. You were truly blessed. May God Bless you All.

Dale and Family, Deepest sympathy on Tom's passing. I met Tom in 1965 when we were first year students at MUN. We became good friends and subsequently worked together for a couple of years at Revenue Canada. I moved away in 1983 but we always kept in touch and I would see him every summer. I so looked forward to our reunions as he was such fun to be around. Tom was a loyal and kind friend. The world feels a little emptier today but I know that the day will come when I will again think of him and smile. Rest easy Tom. Steve

Dale, Margaret, Ned, Rosie and Paddy: Please accept my most personal and sincerest condolences on the passing of a wonderful boyhood friend and neighbor. In the last few years, I have been kept fully apprised of the tremendous fortitude that Tom has shown in battling this god-forsaken disease. I am not at all surprised that, through it all, he maintained his unique sense of humor because that was his essence. It is what I remember most about him and it is what endeared him to so many. The last time we spoke was at my Mother's funeral in 1998, when he dropped by to offer his sympathies. And, despite the somberness of the occasion, we both managed to share our reminiscences and several good quality laughs. Rest in peace, O'Grady.

To the O'Grady Family: Please accept my heartfelt condolences on the passing of Tom at such an early age. As teenagers, we often travelled in the same circles and we met frequently over the intervening years, often reflecting on those happy times of our youth. Tom was always a very pleasant person who always had time to stop and chat. The last time we met was at the Legion in Carbonear and he spoke of what projects he was tackling next, never mentioning his dreaded illness...such was Tom. May he rest in peace now after fighting the good fight. We will remember his kindness and friendly nature and may God bless his family at this very difficult time. My thoughts are with you.

To the family of the late Tom Ogrady. I was a coworker of Tom's at Acoa and I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing. Tom always would carry on with us whenever he came into records to request a file that he was working on at that time, and he just loved talking about his car that he was fixing up. Records was always given NL scenery posters from Dick's & Company and I always made sure that I gave mine to Tom, I remembered him saying one day how he said that he was collecting them to put up in his reckroom. One day he called into Acoa a few years ago when they first found a spot on his lung and I remember him saying to me that he is now in for the fight of his life. Tom no longer needs to suffer, he is now with the ever lasting spirit. I am unable to make it to Carbonear, but I have wonderful memories of a fellow co-worker. Kindest regards Allison George

I was very sad to learn on Wednesday evening that Tom had passed on. I knew he was very ill but that he was fighting the fight of his life to beat the dreaded illness. There were many cheerful and fun days when I worked with Tom at the Provincial Government. HE had a great sense of humour ,a terrific work ethic and a tremendous ability to see the good in all of life's twists and turns and the challenges it passes to us on different occasions . Tom was a gentle man who enjoyed life and what it offered. Let it be said "HE DID IT HIS WAY" My deepest regrets to his family shall have a Mass offered for his soul am sure Tom faced death as he faced life with a deep sense of peace and inner joy. May he rest in peace

My favorite quote from Tom was uttered to me almost everytime I saw him, "Jimmy, your coach told me you couldn't stop a bale of hay!" Everytime I think of Tom, I smile and smile and smile.....how couldn't you! Love and remembrance.....Jimmy.
