Thomas Howard Bechtold Obituary

We are sad to announce that on May 16, 2024 we had to say goodbye to Thomas Howard Bechtold of Union, Illinois, born in Elgin, Illinois. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Thomas Howard Bechtold to show support.

As we bid adieu to Thomas' earthly form, let us not dwell on the void left in his wake, but rather celebrate the legacy of love and inspiration Thomas has bequeathed us. For though he may have departed from our sight, his spirit remains a timeless beacon, guiding loved ones through the labyrinth of life's journey.

He was predeceased by: his parents, Emerich Bechtold and Arlene Bechtold; and his sister Shirley Stanley (Don). He is survived by: his sisters, Mary Ann Kendrick and Judy Lamz (Rick); and his nieces, Laura Ryndak and Donna Persino.

In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation in Tom's name to the American Cancer Society.
