Thomas Howard Odell
September 13, 1941 — April 17, 2017
THORNTON--- Thomas H. Odell, (75) passed away peacefully on April 17, 2017 at Speare Memorial Hospital after a lengthy illness.
Thomas was born on September 13, 1941 in Cambridge, MA, the son of C. Howard and Eleanor (Dewire) Odell. He grew up in Weymouth, graduating from Weymouth High, class of 1959. Tom started out working in local gas stations, which led him to his lifelong career of service station work throughout the New England area, starting with lift installation and repair, then actually building entire stations - from the underground storage tanks to the overhead canopies. He moved to Martha's Vineyard in 1988 for a position with the R.M. Packer company where he worked until his retirement in 2000. He met his loving wife on the Vineyard and they resided in Edgartown until they moved to Thornton, NH in 2001.
Tom was an avid Red Sox and Patriots fan, but his true love was spending time with his grandchildren.
He is survived by his wife of 25 years; Cindy (Piccozi) Odell, his daughter; Ashley Odell and his grandchildren, Oliver and Piper Davis all of Thornton, NH, a brother; William F. Odell and his wife Edith of Hingham, MA, and many nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by his parents, his step mother; Elizabeth Odell of Guildhall VT, two brothers; John "Jack" Odell of California and Larry Odell of Greenfield, MA.
Services will be held later at the convenience of the family.
In lieu of flowers the family asks that a donation be made to; DO-Good Dog Rescue at www.dogooddogrescue.org . or that you consider paying a child's lunch tab at a local school in Tom's name.
