WEST BOYLSTON - Born on April 25, 1941 in Chicago, Illinois and passed on April 26t, 2025 in Worcester, Massachusetts. Son of Edwin Graham and Irene Moynihan Graham. Tom was predeceased by his brother Patrick Graham.

Tom graduated from Corpus Christi High School, Galesburg, Illinois in 1959 and moved to New Jersey shortly after. He went on to attend and graduate from RCA Institute of Technology in New York City. Tom went to work at Dictaphone and later he joined Sandvik, Inc. Moving to Massachusetts, he started his own company, LTD Tool and Engineering, Inc. and was in business until his retirement in 2020.

Known for his sense of humor, genuine smile and witty one-liners, Tom loved his fishing trips, riding the bike, managing his budget and weekend sushi lunches with his family. He also enjoyed a good debate! He was famous for his chili, Sloppy Joes and Super Bowl enchiladas. Whether he was cheering on local teams like the Red Sox, Celtics and Patriots, watching his daughters play basketball and field hockey at Babson College or watching the Indy 500, Tom was an avid sports fan.

Above all else, the love and unity within his family were the true marks of a life well lived.

A Celebration of Tom’s Life will be announced at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in his memory to the Lutheran Rehabilitation and Skilled Care Center in Worcester.
