Thomas Allen Grunzinger Sr.
Thomas Allen Grunzinger Senior, aged 64, passed away on September 5th, 2025.
Cherished son of the late Thomas Alfred and Nancy Mary (Macke) Grunzinger. Proud father of Thomas Allen Grunzinger Jr. Honored brother of Michael, Paula Leonard, Jean (Mark) Williams, Kathy (Jeff) Juenger, Jerry (Kim), the late Christy (Doug) Griesenauer, Sharon Maull, John, Sandra (Loren) Stevens, Carol, Bob (Amy), Steve, Terry (Melissa), Al, Sally (Harold) Compere, and Amy. Joyful uncle to many, many nieces and nephews.
Tommy’s mission in life was to bring joy and laughter to everyone around him. He enjoyed yard work, especially mowing the grass, cooking for others, playing board, dice games, and sports, especially soccer. Tommy had a great love for music, and also was his own musician, playing trumpet, and writing his own lyrics to popular songs.
Tommy very much loved, and was very proud of his parents, siblings, and other close relatives. Their importance was always in his thoughts. When given the (any) opportunity, he loved to speak on the size, accomplishments, and many adventures of his family.
Tommy’s remains will be cremated and his ashes scattered to various places that were important and meaningful to him.
Services and/or celebration of life will be decided upon, coordinated with family and friends, and held, at a later date, to best represent Tommy’s wishes.
Volare, E Cantare.
May you now fly and sing dad.
Fly and sing.
Love you brother Tommy. Rest in peace. Thomas, these are beautiful words to honor your fathers’s life on earth. I hope heaven enjoys the Chaminade fight song. Now, we can pray to him instead of for him.
May you rest in eternal peace, my beloved Godfather and cherished brother. May those who departed before you welcome you with open arms and loving embrace.
I’m so sorry to hear of Tommy’s passing. May he be received by the Angels and all of his loved ones in Heaven.
Hey Tom, your legacy made an impact in the world. God called and relieved you of the body you hosted and carried for so long. Peace with your spirit and memory while in heaven. We’ll all be there soon, please keep it jovial!
Loving Brother

He will be missed. Happy to know that he will be met with open arms by grandma, grandpa, Lynnsey and Christy.
You can now rest in peace with no more pain, brother. I know you are very proud of your son Thomas. How brave and strong he is, including remaining by your side during hospice care to ensure you were not alone. Somewhere over the rainbow you will be!
Tommy’s love for life, laughter and music was infectious. He taught me (and many) much about joy and happiness. May we all be granted peace in our day and protected from all anxiety.
