Thomas Joseph Malizia was born March 25, 1940. He passed away with his family by his side on December 18, 2013 at his home in Bellevue, WA. He is survived by his wife Mary, daughter Sara, son Matthew, as well as, three grandchildren Starla, Skyler, and Kaiden, and one great grandchild Charlie.
Thomas had a love for life. He loved meeting new people ( even solicitors  ) and always had amazing stories to tell. He may have been a bit of a mischievous boy judging by some of his older stories. But he certainly treated everyone with kindness and respect. You always felt special in his presence and never, ever felt like he was being dismissive. His humor and wit always warranted a laugh from those around him.
While he served in the Navy, Thomas met his sweetheart, Mary and they married in 1965. They loved sailing, camping and spending time with family and friends. Thomas had a degree in Engineering and a Masters in Business. He worked as a Manager in Aerospace Engineering for Boeing.
Many individuals that knew Thomas were impacted in such a positive way. He will be missed beyond words.
