Obituary of Thomas Charles Callahan

Thomas Charles Callahan, 57 of Edgecomb, Maine passed away January 2, 2015 at his home, surrounded by his loving family. Tom was born on October 29, 1957 in New Haven, CT to John "Bud" Callahan Sr. and Margaret (Sabol) Callahan. He is predeceased by his parents. Tom is survived by all five of his siblings: John, Matt, Bill, Mary-Kate and Elizabeth Callahan and Tom's nieces also good friend and mother of his children, Sherry Callahan; his eldest daughter, Amanda Ouellette (wife of Jason Ouellette) of Waterville, ME and their three children: Nicholas, Mitchell and Evan who will greatly miss their "Pepe' Tom". Tom is also survived by his daughter Brooke and son Spencer, who stayed by his side during his illness. Tom owned and operated Reliance Auto Repair in Wiscasset since the age of 23 and continued to do so from home until he passed. Tom's "customers" and "employees" over the years had become lifelong friends, and we cannot express the gratitude we have for all of you having such a large impact in his life and continuing to help the family during these hard times. Lastly, we would like to thank Tom's hospice team, Molly and Kirsten for all their love and support. Per Tom's request, there will be no service. He would like to wait for his ashes to be spread on a warm sunny day by his homestead's apple trees. At that time, we will have a celebration of life and encourage attendees to bring flowers to plant in his honor. Date to be determined. In lieu of flowers, photos or stories you have of Tom can be sent to 106 River Road, Edgecomb, ME 04556. Arrangements are under the care of Direct Cremation of Maine, 182 Waldo Avenue, Belfast.
