Thomas "Tommy" A. Vallejo, born on December 8, 1966, passed away peacefully on September 23, 2025, surrounded by the love of his family. He was 58 years old. Tommy was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather whose warmth, humor, and creativity touched everyone who knew him. He married the love of his life, Linda Vallejo, in May of 1989, and together they built a lifetime of memories filled with laughter, music, and love.

From a young age, Tommy had a deep love for animals—his favorite was the lion, though he cherished them all. His gentle nature extended to every part of his life. He enjoyed martial arts, fishing, arts and crafts, and cheering for his beloved Pittsburgh Steelers. A lifelong fan of '80s heavy metal, Southern rock, and country music, Tommy always had a tune playing that matched his upbeat spirit. He was known for his simple joys: a Coca-Cola from Sonic or Whataburger, watching his favorite cartoons like He-Man and Thundercats, and spending time with those he loved most. Above all else, Tommy treasured his family.

Tommy is survived by his loving wife Linda Vallejo; his son Kevin Vallejo and wife Summer, and their daughter Hazel; and his son Kalvin Vallejo. He is also survived by his siblings Jo Ann Anderson, Joe Vallejo, Fidel Vallejo, Charles Vallejo, Steven Vallejo, Gina Fuller, Julie Brown, and Lora Stevens, as well as numerous nieces and nephews who adored their Uncle Tommy. He was preceded in death by his beloved daughter Valerie Vallejo, and his parents Fidel and Gracie Vallejo. Those who knew Tommy will remember his kind heart, his creativity, and his unwavering love for family. The family finds comfort knowing that Tommy is reunited with Valerie and his parents.
