Tom Kane, Sr. He'll always be remembered as a "Family ManGood SamaritanDedicated HusbandHard Working", but I'll remember him for what he taught me. To cherish family, friends, to help a neighbor, to stop for someone that's in distress, has a flat tire, needs a "jump". He didn't have an easy life until he met my mother, Rosemary. She gave him 10 children, the love of his life. They gave him 25 grandchildren and 1 great grandchild. Thanks Dad for everything you did for your family and instilling the values we all have today. We'll miss you but know you're in a better place with our loved ones whom have passed. Love you Dad - J-O-H-N

Tom, I will always remember you as my Bellmore Road neighbor and friend. You were the nicest, kindest and funniest man. May your beautiful soul rest in God's peace. Until we meet again.....My deepest sympathy to all the Kane family. You lost a giant of a man.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Every Father's Day, or on April 21st, I'd remind Dad that there are 32 people and counting that would not see the sunrise had he not the courage to ask Rosemary to be his girl back on 41st St. in Astoria. He always got a kick out of the math of 10 kids who all had kids. Your work on earth was remarkable, now be at peace, Dad, in the company of your Highland clan in the clouds above Cleland.
