In memory of Thomas J. Ward, Gary Miller. FDNY lit a candle

Thomas Ward served the FDNY as an Auto Mechanic and Supervisor of Mechanics for over 26 years. In his most recent assignment, Tom was the supervisor of the Ambulance Shop, responsible for the repair and maintenance of the Department's 650 ambulances. Tom's years of experience and easy-going demeanor made him a huge asset when handling difficult assignments and training new employees. Tom's love of the fire service carried over to his life at home where he served as a volunteer fire fighter at the Massapequa Fire Department for 32 years. Tom was a gentle giant, who greeted everyone with a smile. He is survived by his sons Brian and Patrick, sisters Mary Roulette and Catherine Loechner and brothers John, James and Joseph (retired FDNY Lieutenant) as well as his longtime companion Georgette. He will be missed by all that knew him.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
