we grew up with the urens in guildford lovely family and man he will be missed rip tom uren to heather in particular we grieve too . the laidler family. of guildford .
I had the privilege of giving him a lift up to Darling St one time. He lived near us in Birchgrove. He was a wonderful bloke, also a pacifist and great humanitarian. One can but imagine how he felt about the treatment of refugees.
It’s funny, I grew up on the Nor Shore, and Manly folk are claiming Tom as one of theirs. He did play Union for Manly.

A boxer and soldier. A caring individual above all. He lived across from us in Balmain.
