Thomas E. Farrow, 63, of Newport, Vermont passed away from complications due to COVID on January 21, 2022, in Newport. He was born on January 13, 1959, in Newport to Susan and Sidney Farrow and grew up in Holland. He graduated from North Country Union High School in 1977, where he was outstanding in football, wrestling, and track and field. He later served in the United States Navy.

Tom was a tradesman and he truly enjoyed doing intricate projects. He was kind-hearted and donated his time, working with, and helping the many other people in his life and community. He was also a self-taught, accomplished artist and drew pictures for his friends and family. He loved telling stories and jokes, had a great sense of humor, and a grand love of music — especially from the 60's. He loved good food, reading, writing, and travel. He had a respect for animals, people, and nature. He was inspired by Native-American culture. Tom professed the Christian faith and had read the Bible many times.

Tom is survived by his sisters, Linda Farrow Bullock of Stephenville, Newfoundland; Bonnie Farrow Rice and husband Larry Rice of South Burlington, Vermont; his brothers Steve and wife Pam of Englewood, Florida; Chris and wife Nickie of Mount Holly, Vermont; as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

He was predeceased by his parents, as well as many aunts and uncles.

An internment and family celebration of his life will be held in the summer. Donations may be made in Tom's memory to the non-profit organization the Newport Wireless Mesh, Inc, 316 Main Street Suite 302, Newport, VT 05855.
