Thomas Garriett Still, 69, of Unionville, died suddenly on Wednesday, Aug. 6, at his home. He was the beloved husband of Neva Wheatman Still, with whom he shared 49 years of marriage.
Born in West Chester, he was the son of the late Lloyd and Mary Welsh Still.
A graduate of Kennett High School, Tom spent most of his life in Unionville. He was a lifetime member of St. Patrick Church in Kennett Square and greatly enjoyed visits to St. Malachi Church in Doe Run. He was a former member of Future Farmers of America and the Pennsylvania Christmas Tree Growers Association, and a longtime member of the Marlborough Hunting and Fishing Club. Many happy hours were spent at the club’s cabin in Clinton County with both family and friends. He enjoyed farming early in his life before going into business for himself, and then with his son, Tim, in T&T Still Home Improvement. He loved spending time with family and friends, and served up a hot breakfast and unlimited stories. He taught his children and a few lucky others how to drive anything on wheels, fix most everything, and love people and pets. He was proud to have recently re-acquired his grandfather’s 1951 John Deere B.
In addition to his wife, he is survived by his children, Kenneth (Monica), Beth (Kevin), Timothy, and Susan (Jake); and grandchildren Taylor and Kassie Garris and Garrett and Claire Elks.
He was preceded in death by his sisters, Barbara Ruczhak and Mary Kathleen Still.
Relatives and friends are invited to visit with his family and friends from 10 to 11 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 9, at St. Malachi Church, 76 St. Malachi Road, Cochranville PA 19330. His funeral mass will follow. Burial will be in the adjoining Church cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Marlborough Hunting and Fishing Club, PO Box 962, Unionville PA 19375 or St. Patrick Church, 205 Lafayette Street, Kennett Square PA 19348.
