Thomas X. Diskin of Dorchester, passed away on July 10, 2018.
Cherished father of three children; Glynnis M. (Diskin) LaRosa of Raynham, Daniel C. Diskin and his wife Antonietta of E. Hampstead, NH, and Susan J. (Diskin) Warfield and her husband William of Middleborough. Thomas was the proud grandfather of Michael T. LaRosa, Stefanie L. Diskin, and Thomas J. Diskin.
Thomas served in the United States Navy during the Korean conflict. After his military service he began working at the Record American which later became the Boston Herald. He retired from the newspaper in 2003 after more than 45 years of service. Thomas was an exceptional artist; he also enjoyed photography and music. Thomas found great enjoyment spending time on the beach and being close to the ocean, which was evident by his many trips to Cape Cod and Aruba. His passion in life was his family; they were all that was truly important to him. He will be sadly missed.
