He was the beloved husband of Cynthia (Chirico) Lally and was a strong, positive role model for his sons and grandchildren. Tom was always willing to listen and share his thoughts with many real-world stories that were told with a big smile and his great sense of humor.

He graduated from Westwood HS and received a BS degree from Northeastern University. He was a 1 ^st Lieutenant Signal Corps Army veteran serving with distinction in Germany from 1961-64. After conducting a military maneuver in Germany involving the transportation of over 10,000 troops from around the world Tom was honored with a military commendation for his service. Tom then returned home and worked over the next 31 years to grow his Allstate insurance agency in Enfield, CT. Tom and Cynthia simultaneously built, rented and sold 15 homes on the island of Martha's Vineyard.

Besides his wife, he is survived by his children, Michael and Thomas Lally, his sister, Ann Rau, and five grandchildren, Christopher, Jessica, Caitlin, Erin, and Shannon. For 47 years, Tom loved spending summers boating, fishing and golfing with his family at the beach cottage in Old Lyme Shores, CT. During the winter months Tom and Cynthia lived at Hideaway Beach Club in Marco Island, FL with many close, wonderful friends.
