Dear Tommy, my life will never ever be the same without you. We just spoke a few short days ago and exchanged beautiful words. We both started our lives in Budapest and grew up together in Toronto. You were my cousin but to me more importantly you were my great friend from childhood till now. We shared the very best of times during our most informative years and I will ever forget them. I love you forever Tommy and we will meet again. we know you will be looking after dear Sharon and your beautiful family and your dear father from where you are to go now. The love you forever my Friend!

Tommy and I were great friends in high school and spent countless happy times together. Tommy was the most comfortable with nature and he made the finest bond fires. Life put us on a different path and we met again 2 years ago. We recounted great stories and he proudly spoke of his wife Sharon, his kids and grand children. I can still hear his baritone voice and spirited laughter. My deepest condolences to the family and may the best memories of him stay with us in our hearts.

Dearest David and Esther I was quite saddened to hear of your loss. As i had followed the journey to Germany I was taken aback to hear of your Father's passing. I hope to come to the Shiva on the 8th to see you however if I am unable to attend, I wanted you to know that I care and trust that G-d will provide comfort in time. Love Aunt Carol.

Ron and I really loved Tommy. He was a kind, loving, sensitive, tolerant, warm, gentle man with a great sense of humour. These were some of the attributes that we so admired about him. He was always in our thoughts these last months and we will enjoy reflecting on the wonderful memories we have of our time with him. Our heart felt condolences go out to Sharon, David, Zacaria, and Imre as well as the rest of the family at this very sad time in your lives. A hard battle was fought and now we wish all of you peace and hope the love of your friends and family will comfort you. Love Ron and Joodi Pollock

I am deeply sadden to hear the passing of Thomas Adler. He was my lawyer, my friend, and a man I deeply respected. I was emailing him just recently when he told me about his situation and we stayed in touch. While in Germany he was even willing to work on a document for me. Always there to the end. We often joked about a coffee ritual during the holidays. He will be truly missed. My love and condolences to his family.
