Thomas Gaudet's Obituary
Thomas Gaudet, 58, of Methuen, passed away on Saturday, October 26, 2024 after a brief illness with his family close by at Holy Family Hospital in Methuen.
Tommy was born in and attended school in Methuen, Massachusetts. Throughout his life, he worked at several well-known local restaurants: Cedar Crest, Bishops, and Pasquale’s. In addition, he also worked in Boston and Florida.
Tom had many friends. He loved going to concerts in Boston, especially Madonna, which he attended last summer with his sister, Carrie. Our family remembers him as fun loving and the first on the dance floor to “strike a pose”.
In later years, Tom lived a quiet life with his mother, Janet McGregor and his faithful dog, Reba, at his side. He loved current events and watching the news.
He will be remembered as being very kind and generous. Even in the midst of his death, Tom gave back by being an organ donor.
Tom will be deeply missed by his parents Janet McGregor and John Gaudet, Jr.; siblings, Sean Gaudet, Carrie Hebeisen, and Cheryl Kotsopoulos. He also leaves behind several nieces and nephews.
Relatives and friends are respectfully invited to attend calling hours on Saturday, November 2, 2024, from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM at the Kenneth H. Pollard Funeral Home, 233 Lawrence Street, Methuen. A funeral service will follow at 2:00 PM in the funeral home chapel. Burial will be private. In lieu of flowers, donations in his memory may be made to New England Donor Services, 60 First Ave., Waltham, MA 02451. The Kenneth H. Pollard Funeral Home is honored to serve the Gaudet family.
