Tom and Carol are part of my dearly loved Church family at FPC. Tom's booming voice, always on point, on key, rich and full-toned will ring forever in my memory. His keen sense of humor, his contagious smile and his ability to connect with people from all walks of life were some of the things I will miss most. I'm sorry for Carol's loss and for the children - my prayers are for comfort and peace in the difficult days ahead. I could not make Tom's service because I was visiting my son who lives in Colorado and I regret that I could not make it. I hope the sweetness of your memories offset the pain of loss. Tom will be forever loved and missed. May peace and healing brought through knowing Christ provide comfort in these difficult days. Of course, I'll do anything to help, just name it. Carol - you and your family have my sincere condolences.

Wishing you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead, and loving memories to forever hold in your hearts.

Thomas Hastie brought so many gifts to all who knew him. It seems only fitting that we can honor him by planting a "Giving Tree".

Tom and Carol are the most peaceful and praying couple Ive met. Tom asked and insisted I stay with them during a few of my personal hardships.. when my life was turned upsidedown and severely heart broken..they spoiled me with the most positive feelings that most people take for granted - accepted, wanted, needed, necessary, and loved. I felt like a "princess.". They are truly "Biblical Examples " to want to follow or be like. I have treasured those memories deep in my heart.... Will miss him greatly ....My own Dad passed away last September, now - Tom. There is a big hole in my heart. I feel alone, scared, and lost, however, knowing that both of them are in Heaven looking down at me waiting and watching for me to join them, when Jesus says it's my time to join them....that puts a smile on my face.... Tom will be greatly missed by all Mary Beth

I extend my deepest sympathy to all who will be celebrating the life of Tom Hastie today. Active covid will prevent me from attending, but I will be there in spirit as you share the enormous impact he has made in your lives. I had the privilege of singing with him daily in our High School a cappella choir and will always cherish memories of him, bringing all that he was and still is, lifting his voice to songs of praise - God of Our Fathers, Glorious Everlasting etc. No performance - just pure worship- what a thrill! Looking forward to resuming our praise brother Tom! Carol, family and an abundance of Tom's friends- may God comfort you with wonderful memories as you move through this difficult time until you are with him again. With so much love and prayers, Donna Tucker Pethtel

My deepest sympathies, to his family. I had the honor and privilege to work with Tom at the hospital. I consider it an honor to call him my friend. He touched so many lives and offered compassion, empathy and his friendship to all lives he came across. He will truly be missed.

Deepest sympathies, thoughts and prayers for all that knew of and enjoyed Tom's ministries, and the family that supported him in all his calling,

My sincere sympathies to the family and his church family. In serving the presbytery, I anyways found Tom to be friendly, welcoming and supportive. The church mirrored Tom's good qualities, as a witness to his pastoral leadership and to our Lord, Jesus Christ.

Carol, I am so sorry for your loss. You and Tom both have a special place in my heart. I am praying for comfort. ❤️ Tom was always one of my favorite people! I'll never forget my last day at the infusion center when you both surprised me with flowers! It was one of the sweetest moments of my career! Prayers, -Amanda Fannin
