Dc. Thomas L. Kane
November 10, 2016
Deacon Thomas L. Kane, 64, of Syracuse went to his eternal resting place on Thursday, where he joined his parents, John and Jean Fehr Kane, sister, Barbara Kane Baker, and brother, David Kane.
Tom was employed as a buyer at Onondaga Community College. He was previously employed by Charles Haller Enterprises for 25 years. He was ordained to the Permanent Diaconate in 2010 which was one of his greatest accomplishments. He served at St. Daniel Parish and loved this ministry. Tom was a member of the Knights of Columbus Council 5398 where he served as past Grand Knight. He was a past Scout Master for Boy Scout Troop 223 and was also a little league coach for Lincoln-Salem Little League.
Tom is survived by his loving wife of 41 years, Sandra Rougeau Kane, his son, Sean (Tequina) Kane of Camano Island, WA., daughter, Lauren Kane of Syracuse, two granddaughters, Jhonny Davis and Lilah Kane whom he treasured dearly and enjoyed immensely. Also surviving are his brother, John (Darlene) Kane of Fort Pierce, Fla. and brother-in-law, Edwin Baker of Baldwinsville, mother and father-in-law, Betty and Joe Metallo of Syracuse, brothers-in-law, Thomas (Nancy) Rougeau of Chittenango, Gary (Lillian) of Olean, NY, John (Joyce) of Syracuse, Larry (Kathy Durkin) of Clay and sisters-in-law Mary Rougeau and Patty (Roger) Auger both of Syracuse. He is survived by numerous nieces and nephews, great nieces and nephews and many cousins as well as his brother deacons especially those from his ordination class of 2010.
Our entire family wishes to express how grateful we are for the loving, compassionate care that Tom received at St. Joseph's Hospital. Everyone from the surgeon and doctors, to the nursing staff on the 3rd floor Critical Intensive Care Unit, the pastoral care staff, and everyone in between was caring and respectful and treated Tom with dignity to his final breath.
In hope that some scientific knowledge can be gained from Tom's passing, his body was donated to the HHT Foundation for medical research.
Calling hours will be held at St. Daniel Church, 3004 Court St., Syracuse on Sunday, November 13th from 4-7 P.M. with a Deacon Service of immediately follow at 7 P.M. A celebration mass will be held on Monday, November 14th at 12:10 P.M.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to St. Daniel Church, 3004 Court St., Syracuse, NY 13208 or Blessed Sacrament Outreach Program at 3147 James St., Syracuse, NY 13206.

Dear Sandra and family of Dc. Thomas L. Kane
I am deeply sorry for your loss. I met him once at St. Daniels mass.
He was a great speaker and loved his Homily's.
I just talked to him not too long ago and he was very nice.
Will miss him @ St. Daniel's mass.
May he rest in peace, he's in the arms of our Lord Jesus.
God bless you all, and are in my prayers and thoughts.

Our thoughts & prayers are with you & your family at this most difficult time.
Tom was a wonderful person whom I had the pleasure of working with for 4 1/2 years at OCC. He was a fantastic professional and we did great work together. He was someone I could always count on, no matter what the situation. But more importantly, he was a wonderful human being. We enjoyed many laughs working together and had fun doing what we did. I will remember the latter--and cherish those memories of him more--and will miss him very, very much. He was a wonderful soul.
Tom will surely be missed within the OCC family. God bless him and his memory, and please watch over his loved ones.
