I want to express our deeply sympathy toward to the family of Popowski: Ron, his family and the parents, Charles and Sally for their beloved son, brother, brother in law, uncle and friend. Ron has put up lot of sacrifices to provide 2 memorial services for both west and east sides of USA (New Jersey and Washington State). I know Tom is smiling up there.

Tom has walked/ran/cycled around the world with his own legs more than anyone I can think of and left thousands of footprints for us to remember.

Tom was originally from New Jersey, went to NTID from 1985 (SVP '85) to 1991. Moved to Northwest (Washington State) in early 90's. His life was full of ADVENTURES! Believe it or not, he has been to 72 different countries, not 10, 3 or 65! Wondered how many miles he has ran, walked and cycled. I am sure he had more mileages than the 1966 Ford Mustang with rebuilt engines.

You, Tom, were tragically taken from us, and that's what makes it so hard. But, we all love you so much and still wish that you were still here. You meant a lot to everyone.

Tom Popowski, 42, passed away peacefully in his sleep at his home in Everett, Washington during early morning hour of Wednesday January 30, 2008 after complications in his liver stemming from colon cancer.

There will be two Memorial Services with one in Seattle, Washington and another one in New Jersey sometime in April or May 2008. Announcements with details of date and location for Memorial Services will be forthcoming in coming weeks.

Tom is survived by his parents Charles and Sally Popowski; and his brother Ron, his wife Jennifer and three kids, Sima, Trista and Trent.

Tom will be sorely missed. Thank you friends, families, teachers, and players. Your life continues to have meaning and you will always be in our hearts and souls. Ron Popowski

Please send your love, support, and condolence to his family (Bro Ron, parents - Charles and Sally) at this email address:
