Thomas was born May 4, 1941, in Toledo, OH, the son of Liguori and Dolores (Pollack) Shortsle. He married the love of his life, Francis on May 21, 1966 and together the two grew their family to include three children.
Family was always the most important to Tom; he was a wonderful father that loved every minute spent with his children and wife. He had a generous soul; always doing what he could for others, even if he didn’t like them. Known to be a hard worker, Tom kept busy always, rarely sitting down to relax. According to his family, he was quiet most of the time, unless otherwise needed.
Thomas will be greatly missed by his wife of 50 years, Francis; two children, Thomas F. (Melinda) Shortsle and Anna Shortsle (Kyle England); six grandchildren and four great great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents; son, Edward and brother, Corky.
