To me as a young kid, you were a gentle giant. A hard-working, family man that I grew to admire as I grew up. You will be greatly missed Uncle Tom

So sorry to Judy and the family. Tommy was such a good and kind man. Glad that I knew him. And we grew up in same community.
It is with heart felt saddens that I heard of the passing of Mr. Sanetrik Sr. My wife and I, and My extended family want to express our condolence for you all as you grieve his passing. I can still remember how he would attend all of our games and practices for football clear back in grade school. I am glad to have had the opportunity to know him and the entire Sanetrik family!
John 14:1-6. Let not your hearts be troubled, Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Fathers house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going. Thomas said to him, Lord we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way? Jesus said to him, I AM the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
I do believe Jesus words, and I do believe that we will see out loved ones again.
