    Tom,
    You were one of the first people I met when I moved to Orlando. How fitting that we met at a bar watching the Buffalo Bills. We immediately clicked, as if we had known each other for years. I will cherish all the times we shared. I will miss you, buddy. I know you are in a better place looking down from above. Rest in peace my dear friend.
    With love,
    Bryan

    My dear brother Tom.
    We created many great memories in the days of our youth, playing basketball, street hockey, frisbee, kickball, diving into the snow re-enacting our football heroes, plus epic wiffleball blasts into the trees. In later years, a love of music and concerts further bonded us. You poured yourself into into Aaron. You and Kelly can be proud of the fine young man you raised.
    You will be missed more than words can say.
    Love, Big Brother Bruce (BBB)

    I am now envisioning that Tom is COMPLETELY healed and in the presence of Christ. The promise of that is comforting. My husband Jeff and I send our sincere prayers as you all journey through this time of grief. We got to get reacquainted with Tom at the 90th Birthday Party of his Aunt Mary Jo Baum in November of 2019. He and I discovered we were going to the same cancer center for our infusions. We cheered each other on. I learned how much he adored his wonderful wife Kelly, their son, and his whole family. He also shared with me his deep spiritual thoughts that I found uplifting.

    Sending love and prayers to Kelly and Aaron. It one less of us with that Baum humor that could make the world around us laugh. Remembering all the good times we had growing up in Clarence and the move to FL. You and Kelly did a great job raising Aaron and I know he has a lot of great memories of all the things you did together. I will keep rocking out for you and rooting for the dang Bills. We will miss you. Rest in peace cuz.

    Love David and Diane

    To the rocker uncle. I remember when me, Grandma and Grandpa went up to visit and you gave me my first vinyl out of your extensive collection. Every time you would come down we would always chat about music and compare our haircuts. You stayed strong until the very end. You will be remembered and those memories will be cherished forever. Love you Uncle Tom. BaumSquad4Life!

    Uncle Tom was always the life of the party when he was around us. I will always remember drawing his portrait and ponytail as a kid and all the great laughs we shared. I love you Uncle Tom.

    To my favorite brother....your humor and sweetness will be what I miss the most. I am so grateful that we grew closer as we became adults and our kiddos were able to be together as little tikes- beginning the reign of "Un-cle Tom, Un-cle Tom!" Your strength and perseverance during your illness was an inspiration to us all! I love you Tom.

    Uncle Tom,

    To one of the most fun loving and coolest family members you can ask for. The ponytail and bandanas, the rock tees and Bills gear will live on forever. Memories from playing football outside with the boys to seeing you push Aaron and kept his kicking skills sharp was beautiful. I’m glad you are at peace now, please give your strength and guidance to Kelly and Aaron for us. We all loved you and will cherish the memories we shared forever.

    Much love and rest easy Uncle Tom the Bomb Baum.
