O'Gara, Thomas J. (Tom)
Age 69 of Roseville
Passed away on Aug. 29, 2025 at Regions Hospital. Preceded in death by parents William and Gertrude; sisters Maureen and Eileen; brothers Bill and Mark. Survived by his beloved Lynette; sister Pat Perro; brothers Steve (Terri), Dan (Dynelle) and Geoff.
Tom was born and raised in St. Paul and graduated from Cretin High School in 1974. He was an avid fan of Minnesota sports and played on golf, bowling and cribbage leagues. Tom loved the outdoors, enjoyed camping at our state parks and walking around its lakes. He had a wonderful sense of humor, loved people and was always quick to say hello, shake one's hand and share a good-natured moment.
Thank you to Regions Hospital and Capitol View Transitional Care staff for the excellent and compassionate care provided.
"Death leaves a heartache no one can heal; love leaves a memory no one can steal." - Irish proverb. Private interment.
