Thomas Patrick Callen Jr., 80, of Oswego died Wednesday June 22, 2022 in Bishop Rehabilitation Center in Syracuse, after a long illness. Tom was the son of the late Thomas and Florence (Knopp) Callen Sr. He was a former employee of Dement’s Food, Oswego.
He is survived by his sisters Linda Fontana of Oswego, Mary Harvey of New Mexico, and Barbara (Harold K.) Peeling of Scriba. Tom is also survived by his nieces and nephews Harold, Pamela, Rebecca, Teresa, Angela, Lisa, Cristy, and Denise, and several great nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by two brothers-in-law William Harvey and Ralph Fontana.
Tom’s wishes are that his services and burial will be private.
The arrangements are in the care of the Sugar & Scanlon Funeral Home, Oswego.
Tom was a friend through his friend Larry Rose who passed away also a few years ago. Tom knew everything about stereos and a LOT about classical music. I would see him at various places scouring out LPs and we’d talk about hi fi quality. Once Tom even set up my cd player (in the day 20 yrs ago) ad a favor to me. Although due to Covid. I hadn’t seen him for awhile I have fond memories of this friendship. I am sorry for his loss. I hope he gets to meet all his favorite composers on the other side. Rest Tom.
Linda, Mary and Barb, I am so sorry to hear that Tommy passed away. Know that I am thinking of you all. Love, Cousin Jo
This makes me so sad. I hope Tom had a good life.
