Lentz Thomas "Tom" J. Lentz, age 40, of Eagan, passed away unexpectedly June 24, 2003. A loving husband, father and son, is survived by wife, Lynn; children, Callie & Mason; parents, William & Janet; brother, Charles (Jacqueline); sister, Karin (Todd) Kuhn; 8 nieces & nephews; aunts & uncles; & other loving relatives and friends. We will miss Tom's loving smile and the never- ending generosity he showered on his family and friends.
Tom was one of my best friends for many many years. He was always a joy to be around. So many great memories. I don't ever remember him in a bad mood. He always seemed happy to be alive and was happiest when he was with his friends and family. Floating down the St. Croix, camping anywhere in the state, Halloween parties, the Lucky Twin drive-in, B-52's concerts, barbeques at his house with Lynn. And yes, his Barracuda. I will always miss him.
Tom was my childhood friend and in later years we saw each other all the time at the Fire Muster parades. I couldn't wait to see him and get a world famous bear hug from him. So, so sad that his life ended at 40 when he had so much more to give...he was one of the most kind, gentle and loyal friends I ever had. I still miss him so much...

Tom was a fun-loving guy with a warm and loving family. Who doesn't remember his brother's Barracuda or Tom blasting Earth, Wind & Fire? What a loss.
