Thomas Goggin

Thomas P. Goggin, Jr.,83, of Bartlett; husband of the late Marion for nearly 40 years, nee Clark; dad of Heather (Brian) Both and Timothy; grandpa of Dylan and Colton; brother of Carole Dempsey and the late William and Dianne (late Robert) Dooley; uncle of numerous nieces and nephews. Thomas was a very modest, humble man. He served his country in the Marine Corps in Japan. Upon his return to the states he worked as an engineer with the CTA (for 25-30 years), making sure the trains and the tracks had the proper power to do what they had to do. In his spare time he enjoyed going up North both to the U.P. and to Friendship Adams, Wisconsin where there was a family cabin, which he helped build. He and Marion also took some Caribbean cruises. He was a sports enthusiast, following The Sox, NASCAR and even golf. More than anything, he was a proud, involved grandpa in both Dylan and Colton's lives.
