Thomas John Mortek

Tom was a remarkable man, whose selfless nature touched the lives of all those around him. Born on October 11, 1964, he embodied the values of compassion, kindness, and generosity. It is with great sadness that we announce his passing on December 17, 2023, at his home in Fridley.

Regardless of the situation, Tom's selfless spirit prevailed, always there to offer a helping hand. Tom's profound impact on the lives of his family and friends will never be forgotten.

His love for family, cabin life and fishing brought him immense joy and contentment. Additionally, he found tremendous happiness in spending quality time with his beloved grandchildren, Aubrey and Takota.

 His memory will forever live on as an inspiration to all those who had the privilege of knowing him.

Tom is survived by his brother Ken (Lori), sisters Chris and Beth (Kevin). He extended his love unconditionally to Nikki and Andria, as well as their families, as if they were daughters of his own.

In addition to his immediate family members mentioned above, Tom had many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins and countless devoted friends.

 Tom will forever be remembered for his selflessness, kindness, and unwavering dedication to others. His warm smile, gentle spirit, and caring nature will continue to shine brightly in the hearts of all he touched. May his soul find eternal peace as his memory lives on through those who were fortunate enough to have called him family or friend.

Tom’s Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, January 20th 2024, at Shortstop Bar and Grill. 1298 E. Moore Lake Drive Fridley, MN 55432 from 12pm to 3pm.
