I am so sorry for ur loss. Mr. Daley was such a great teacher throughout my years in elementary. I remember during free day we would play hockey and he wouldn’t take it easy on me. Then even after I left thacher he would still say hi to me when I was at the school. My friends and I still talk about what a great teacher and person he was. Again, I’m sorry for your loss, he will be missed.

I offer my deepest condolences on the loss of Tom. I’m not sure you can ever know the full impact he made in his career working with students. I will never forget the kindest and joy he brought to my children and neither will they. P.E. was always their favorite class because Tom was inspiring and made school fun. I chatted with Tom frequently during pick up time in the parking lot. I remember seeing in his face the love and devotion he felt for both Stephanie and Zach. I will keep you in my heart and in my prayers. Wishing you comfort during this incredibly difficult time.

Mr. Daley was truly one of the greatest teachers that myself and my sisters were ever able to have. We were all heartbroken to hear of his passing. Every time I hear one of the many songs from our PE soundtrack, I still think of jump rope shows and the only time I’ve ever enjoyed a gym class. We send our deepest condolences to you all, he was such a kind and loving person and touched the lives of so many Attleboro students. Sending all our love and prayers to you during such a difficult time.

Thank you Tom for all you've done for Sarah, Jimmy, and all the Juniper Ave. kiddos who've been influenced by your kind, caring and gentle demeanor. As a fellow PE/Health teacher, your dedication will inspire me through these difficult times. God Bless and godspeed to you and yours.

Stephanie, it is with heavy heart that I try to express the loss I am feeling and can not imagine what you and your family are feeling. I am one of the guys who had the privilege of playing golf with Tom all those years. Tom was a joy to be around, always a smile, a funny comment and a kind word. This year's winner of The Charles L. Hunter trophy for being the top point scorer in the league. My only regret is that I was not able to see his smile when I presented the trophy. "TD", we love you and we miss you! Rest easy my friend.

Dear Stephanie and Zack. I cannot express how sorry I am to hear this terrible news about Mr. Daley. He was an amazing teacher and such a joyful presence at Thacher from the first time I met him. Grace adored Mr. Daley. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful man with all of us. Noelle and I and especially Grace will never forget him. I am so so sorry. Life is not fair.

Tom Daley was one of the finest people I know. I can see him now directing traffic at Thacher School after a long day in the school gym. When I came in to substitute he always took extra time to explain the days lessons to me. Tom had such a wonderful way with Special Needs youngsters. Tom always took the time to make every student feel welcome. His death is a tremendous loss to the Attleboro School System. I will miss his cheerful disposition and special smile.

Mr. Daley was an outstanding teacher that made a huge impact on my kids' lives. He had funny nicknames for them all and made them feel important. I dropped my kids off every Friday and we would always talk about what was going on that week. He was upbeat, cheerful and a pleasure to be around. God bless you Mr. Daley, and your family. We will never forget you.

So sorry for his loss. Tom was the first teacher friend who taught me the balance between being serious at my job (which I can be overly so) and the power of laughing with friends and colleagues about the daily challenges of teaching. Once Tom has set up an obstacle course outside for the kids to use(because he was awesome) and during recess two of my students jumped on the exercise balls. When I had them write an apology letter to Tom-they write-Dear Mr. Daley I’m sorry for bouncing on your big blue balls. We laughed and laughed. Thank you Tom for the lessons and I will miss you my forever friend.

Stephanie and family, I can not find words to express my deep sympathy and sorrow in the untimely loss of wonderful Tom. As a sub teacher at Thacher with both Tom and Stephanie, I acquired a huge amount of respect and talent you both have with the entire student body, while always adding the perfect amount of humor. You were a perfect team. I truly looked forward to the days I would take a class to "Mr. Daley" for Physical Ed. He gave each and every child his full attention. He loved and knew them so well. He had a special nickname for each...including me! Tom was always upbeat and a pleasure to be around, regardless of his day. He taught utilizing his brilliant way, with the students, while teaching them life skills, making sure his kids knew they were important, smart and loved, yet made it fun! I think the jump rope show should be named "the Daley Jump Show" a tribute to his to his dedication. He will be missed by so many, and remain in our hearts forever.

I’m so very sorry for your loss. It’s hard to find the words to say. Tom touched so many lives. So many students that come to the middle school tell me how fun Mr. Daley’s PE classes were Especially the jump rope events that he had so many times. He will be sorely missed and always in our minds.

Mr. Daley will be missed greatly!! My daughter Parker was a student at Thatcher - from her first day in Kindergarten it was ALWAYS about Mr. Daley. The jump rope shows, the school bus....drip drip drop!!. One day I was late picking her up and Mr. Daley was keeping her company - he cared so much about the students - and they, especially Parker, LOVED him. Sending our thoughts and prayers to the Daley family.
