We were neighbors of Tom and Jackie for many years. Best Neighbors ever! Tom and Bob enjoyed many hunting and fishing conversations together. He will be missed by so many. Our sincere sympathy to all of his wonderful family.

Thank you for the pleasure of doing funeral honors in memory of Mr. Eccleston. It was a beautiful service.

I’m really going to miss you Dad!

Jackie and family, Tom will be greatly missed, he’s been a family friend for over 50 years. He was like family, always had a story to tell , mostly a bs story, but a convening story at that. He and Joe can now hunt and fish sun up to sun down nonstop forever together. I am sorry for your loss he will be missed, all my love and best wishes, Lynne

Last night, New Years Eve, I remembered all the new years eves
we played poker with Tom and Jackie and Billy and Marty. All the casinos we went to and always ended in the room playing cards.
will miss you a lot Tom, but I feel better now that you are with Joe

Whether get togethers ,camping , hunting ,fishing ,golfing or the many other adventures with the Joe Sorenson family . Thanks ,Kevin and Fran Morgan

Tears in my eyes this morning after hearing Tom had passed. I as well worked for Tom at the City Operation Center. Great guy, always supportive and a great mentor. Going to miss him on the river. “River buddies” are never forgotten. I remember clearly one early morning Spring salmon fishing Tom launched his beautiful boat, sat on his fishing rod braking it and seconds later a Seagull pooped on him. Oh did we laugh. Hell of a fisherman he was. I think he got his fish that day. Good boss, good sport. Thank you for sharing an Alaskan Kenai River salmon fishing adventure with me. So many great memories with Tom on the job and off. Tight lines my friend.
Our best to the entire family. Rob and Sharon

So sorry to hear of Tom's passing!! My heart goes out to all of his family. You are all in my thoughts and prayers! I remember my sister Shanon and I staying at the house with all the kids while my parents and Tom and Jackie went out frog hunting one evening. Hugs to you all!

I worked for Tom when he had Eddies. One weekend I road my Triumph to town, stopped,at Eddies . Went inside and the guys thought it was a good idea to ride my bike for a couple of loops around the dance floor. They also thought it was a good idea to put it on the bar, including Tom . So they did and I got on it and every one laughed, till I started it up. Tom had a cow. Lots of great memories of back in the day.

Tom was always willing to talk about hunting and fishing, enjoyed many conversations with Tom and fishing. The neighborhood will miss his smiling face and friendship.

Tom was a great neighbor and fellow fisherman, he was always willing to discuss hunting and fishing. He will be missed for his stories and smiling face. The neighborhood has lost a great neighbor. RIP Tom.

Tom was a fun and likeable guy that everyone enjoyed being around.
He will be missed.

A great man. Worked for him at the COV for years. He took a chance on me and it turned into a 33 year run for me. Together we worked hard and had a lot of fun. Grandpa jelly bean will truly be missed!

Tom was a good guy and friend to many people. He and Joe Sorenson were buddies and outstanding fishermen. I worked for Tom at the Vancouver Water Department for 20 years and he was a great boss. He would do just about anything for his employees. He will be greatly missed. Rest easy my friend.
