Thomas J. Walak

Thomas J Walak “Tom” of East Syracuse, NY born in Brooklyn, NY on May 4, 1951 passed away suddenly on May 17, 2025. Tom was an avid car enthusiast. Toms greatest passion was being a grandfather. Tom was a very humble man, devoted to always making sure his family and friends knew they were loved. Toms last years were spent watching his grandchildren grow. He will truly be missed by all leaving us with a valuable lesson; Time is not promised, anger is a waste of your time and its about progress not perfection.
