Posted: Tue May 28, 2024 7:37 amThomas (Tom) W. Gill Jr. passed away on May 1, 2024, leaving behind a legacy that will be cherished by all who knew him. Born on July 4, 1948 in Chicago, Illinois, he grew up surrounded by his loving family, including his devoted parents, who preceded him in death, Thomas and LaVerne Gill. Tom is survived by his adoring elder sister, Eileen McMahon (Tom), aunt, Elizabeth (Gill) Dvorak (late Charles), and many loving cousins. After graduating from DeLaSalle High School, Tom served in the US Army and was honorably discharged. He then began working with the CPD as a civilian member and as a diesel mechanic for Cummin’s; he continued to work both jobs until he retired. With his late wife, Starr Gill, they raised Paso Fino horses and enjoyed living on their farmette. Tom was a simple, hardworking man who enjoyed yearly fishing trips to Canada, his animals, and good company. He passed peacefully in his sleep, with his companion, Charlene Collins, by his side. Services will not be held at this time. The family will celebrate his legacy with a memorial at a later date.
