Thomas F. Healy III

MILLERTON — Thomas F. Healy III, 63, passed on to be with the Lord on the evening of Dec. 27, 2021, at the Kaplan Family Hospice Residence in Newburgh, N.Y.

Born Feb. 25, 1958, in Sharon, he was the son of the late Kathleen C. and Thomas F. Healy. Tom attended school in Pine Plains in his early years and was a graduate of Webutuck High School in Amenia.

Mr. Healy lived a challenging, yet simple, yet inspiring adult life battling illness. Despite his life challenges, he will be remembered as a quiet, peaceful man with a friendly demeanor, his hair only slowly changing to gray, loving to take walks and always ready to share time with his favorites, a cup of coffee or a can of Coke. Tom did abide.

Mr. Healy is survived by his brother and sister-in- law, James Healy and Thanh Nguyen of Fort Worth, Texas; his nephew, Matthew Goodacre of Lakeville; and his nieces, Tanya, Cynthia and Olivia, all of Texas.

A graveside service and burial took place on Dec. 31, at Evergreen Cemetery in Pine Plains, the Rev. William Mayhew officiating. Memorial donations may be made to MHA of Dutchess County, 253 Mansion St., Poughkeepsie, NY 12601.

Arrangements have been entrusted to the Scott D. Conklin Funeral Home in Millerton. To send an online condolence to the family, please visit www.conklinfuneralhome.com.
