PARSONS, Thomas Lewis (Tom)

A true gentleman – now at rest.

Fond memories from Lockington

A wonderful man with many talents, and a friend. Thanks to Tom he had a big influence on Lindsay (dec.) with flying and water skiing, which I continued to enjoy. Thanks Tom for all you were and for all you did for Lockington and the community. Beryl Marshall

What a handsome inspirational man RIP thankyou for joining my husband and myself hand in marriage and getting to spend a short time with you in your home always will be with us Tom .x

Very sad to hear this. Tom I always think about you. You conducted our wedding and also our first daughters christening. Such a beautiful soul. We all have very fond memories of you. May you rest in peace.

A lovely gentleman. Always interested in people.

Sincere condolences to Tom’s family
One of the true gentlemen’s I have had the pleasure of knowing
Thankyou for bringing your groups to The Esplanade Hotel in Inverloch and allowing me our continued connection over the years
Rest In Peace

Sorry to hear that Tom has passed away, my uncle Richard John Burgess who flew with Tom whilst serving in the Pathfinders would have been upset to hear of his passing, but unfortunatley my uncle died two weeks ago. I heard many events of their exploits together and having watched and the tributes from friends realised how lucky my Uncle was to serve with Tom

The Leongatha Uniting Church were very thankful for Tom who played the organ in our church for over 20 years, up until just a few years ago.
And up until Tom’s death, he was happily receiving printouts of weekly worship services offered during this time of COVID-19.

Fond memories of my time at Parsons Lockington. Rest in Peace Tom

Elaine, Sue and Jeff, I knew Tom when he was in UK in the war and he stayed with a local doctor as he recuperated. I visited once in Leongatha but he was a big part of our lives. How sad that he is gone. I was hoping to visit for his 98, this year, I thought. I now live in Colorado, US. Sending peace and loe to you all.

Uncle Tom was a great friend Tommy grandparents Noel and Joyce Fraser. Grandpa always loved catching up with Tom and had so many wonderful stories of their time together. I will always remember Tom as being such a kind man.
I’m sorry it has taken me so long to find out about Uncle Tom’s passing. I’m sure that Uncle Tom, Hazel and my grandparents are up there together having lots of fun!
With lots of love
Emma on behalf of the Fraser family. Xoxo
