  To James, Emily, Daniel and all the Boudreau Family our thoughts are with you as you say good bye to your dad / sibling today. I was unable to attend but was there in Spirit all the way with you. Tom worked for us as an Instructor at Sunshine Village in the mid 70's and through the joys of skiing, working and socializing together we became best friends and shared so much together for so many years both out west and in Halifax & Wentworth. Tom will be embedded in my life forever and I am thankful that he is now at peace.

  Dear Robert, Peggy, and family. I am so sorry for your loss. Apart from knowing Tom growing up at STA, our desks were beside each other at Merrill Lynch, and Tom was kind and welcoming to all. Our career paths changed and our paths didn't cross again, but will always have fond memories of Tom.

  To Tommy’s family my condolences, I spent time with Tom at Sunshine Village in the 70’s involved with Jerry Johnson’s Disable Ski Program . We had a great time teaching everyone to ski , and as anyone who has learned to ski knows , we all start with a disability. Tom made sure everyone learned to ski and it goes without saying , everyone had fun. Thanks Tommy for the smiles and the good memories.

  I send sincere condolences to the entire Boudreau clan. Tom and I were great friends going way back to Rockingham. I loved him like a brother even thought he could always do everything just a little better than I. We spent several years together out west during Tom’s skiing years mainly in Penticton BC. Although we were far apart we always connected at least twice a year on our birthdays. Tommy, you lived life large and enriched everyone you touched. With much love, Mike Windeler.

  Dear Emily, James and Daniel, I have such great memories of your Dad in Wentworth. He was always the gracious gentleman, with a terrific wit. He brought his humour and grin into our cottage, as easily as we brought in snow-filled boots. He was fiercely proud of you all, and sometimes, it seemed as he was just going to burst with pride. Hold on tight to each other, and the wonderful memories of your Dad. We will miss him.

  Dear Emily, James and Daniel, We are sending heart filled sympathy for the loss of your father. We spent many weekends skiing, socializing in Bedford and on the water with Tom accompanied with much laughter and fun. We also experienced the compassionate side of Tom that meant so much to us and touched our hearts. Thanks for the memories Tom, May your days be filled with a fresh morning snowfall and sunshine on your face. Bill and Charlotte

  Dear Emily, James and Daniel, We are very sorry to learn of your father’s passing. Tom was obviously- and rightfully- proud of his children and your accomplishments. He instilled a love of sport, competition and fun in you that will always serve you well. We hope your happy memories will see you through these difficult days, and always give you comfort. You and your family are in our thoughts. George and Linda McLellan

  My condolences to all. Tom was a great guy - we had lots of laughs together. I think of him often. I remember the two of us floating down the Wallace River on a summer afternoon in a leaky inflatable boat without a care.

  Helen Steeves

  Dear Emily, James, and Daniel, we were so sorry to hear of your loss and as we remember Tom, we have so many great memories of all things skiing with him, whether it be the many road trips to races or just weekends of fun in the Wentworth Valley. Some of the best times were working along side him as race officials at the " Brunner" when Tom was in his element, orchestrating every detail to ensure everyone in attendance had a safe and fun experience. Our family will always fondly remember his enthusiasm, energy, humour and the deep pride he had in the three of you. Thinking of you all with love and prayers.

  Dearest Emily, James and Daniel We were saddened to hear of you Dad's passing, and take comfort in the wonderful memories of the Wentworth Ski Racing days and good times at the "Hill". His love of family was so strong and we got to meet many of your Aunts, Uncles and Cousins, who he would gather in the "Valley of Snow" and would enjoy "cooking up a storm" for everyone. He welcomed everyone into his heart and his home, and would share his pride in a recent accomplishment that you each achieved. Hug each other, and remember the good times. Donna, John and Christian Stringer

  Dear Peggy, John, Robert, Mary Louise, Jim, Lisa, Paul and Tom’s children, I was so sorry to hear about Tom’s passing. Another family that was very much inter-twined with the Smith clan. I hope that all of the wonderful memories carry you through this very difficult time. You’re in my thoughts.

  Dear Boudreau Family, Not sure how to express my sorrow for Tom's passing. We were friends for over 50 years. So, so many memories come pouring in. Our time in Europe together, Dalhousie, skiing , and wonderful heart to heart chats about our futures, life and the enjoyment of friendships. We will always miss Boudy . Heartfelt sorrow for your loss.

  Tom had a special place in my heart, as I always considered him my first boyfriend (if a first kiss does a first boyfriend make!). The Boudreau and Gillis family were intertwined from early days when our mothers became great friends in nursing school, so it was somehow fitting that we all ended up at STA. Tom (or Tommy in those early days) was always smart, talented and funny. Although I hadn’t seen him for several years, I have fond memories of those times when out paths did cross. My very deepest sympathy to the Boudreau family - a heartbreaking loss for you all.

  To the Boudreau family. While it has been several year since I last saw Tommy, I have many positive memories from times spent at the Jubilee Road house, the STA church and sharing classrooms at both STA and St Pat's. Tommy always seemed so upbeat and full of energy, ready to catch up and had that twinkle in his eye. Sadly, he has moved on far too early however I am hopeful that he is now in a much better place. Thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time and especially with Tommy and his children. Mike O'Connor

  Tom was always fun to be with, as youth or adults. He was justifiably proud of his children. He had a sharp and insightful business mind. He has been and will be missed.

  To all the Boudreau family I was sad to hear the news of Tommy. I will always remember walking up Jubilee Rd. with Tommy on our way to our separate schools during those carefree formative years. Although I had not seen Tom for many years, when I did run into him on my summer visits he was always eager to share stories of his beloved children. I am thinking of you all at this time.

  Frank Hiscock

  To all the Boudreau Family: Please accept my deepest sympathy on Tom's passing. I worked with Tom at Nesbitt Thomson Bongard years ago and also played a bit of golf with he and Jimmy during that time period. Days of going to Ken-Wo very early on a Saturday morning where we always had fun and many laughs. Tom truly was "hail fellow well met" if there ever was one. Always enjoyed his company. Played a little with him a few years ago at Old Ashburn as well, and always had a side bet going which we both got a charge out of.He and I will never forget the infamous, bingo bango bongo. Never a quitter,and always smiling when he saw you,he always came over to say hello to me wherever and whenever he ran into me. I haven't seen him for a few years,but that was what I really admired about Tom-he never forgot you, no matter what! May God Bless You in your hour of sorrow,and May God Love Tom as much as you all did! Sincerely, Frank Hiscock.
