Thomas Normand Thibodeau, 35, of Portland, CT, passed away unexpectedly, yet peacefully, at his home on Monday, March 16, 2026.  His passing will leave a deep and lasting impact on all who knew and loved him.

Tom is survived by his loving parents, Normand and Debra Thibodeau and his second family Deb, Dave, Brian, and Hannah Denette.

Besides his parents, Tom is survived by his Aunt Charline ("C") Thibodeau, his Uncle Paul Thibodeau and Aunt Terry Roy (Ron).  He also leaves behind several cousins.

His passion from the time he was a young boy was cars, and he channeled that passion into a successful career as a car salesman.

Tom shared a special bond with many of his friends, including Rayshawn, Allison, Sara, Cat, Peter, Natalie and Tia.  His loss leaves an immeasurable void in their hearts.

Tom had an adventurous spirit, a kind heart, an infectious sense of humor and was genuinely a good human.  His memory will live on through the love he gave, the laughter he shared and the lives he touched.

A Funeral Liturgy will be held on Monday, March 23rd at 10:30 at St. Bridget of Kildare Church in Moodus.  Friends may also gather at Biega Funeral home at 3 Silver Street, Middletown on Sunday March 22, 4-6.  To share memories or express condolences online, please visit www.biegafuneralhome.com.
