Thomas E. Lacey of Quincy MA passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loving family, on August 3, 2021 at the age of 85.

Tom was from Saint Peter’s Parish in Dorchester and graduated from Cathedral High School and Newbury Junior College in Boston. He proudly served in the US Navy and was a long-time member of the Quincy Elks. A dedicated lineman and crew leader where he worked for the Boston Edison Company for over 34 years, a job he loved and mastered. He was most proud when he was asked to be the Public Safety liaison teaching electric safety in schools throughout the Commonwealth. His entire career was centered on always helping people out including customers, co-workers, students or anyone needing a hand.

In semi-retirement, Tom enjoyed working as a limo driver for the MacKinnon Livery Service, having daily coffee and holding court at the Greenhill’s Bakery in Dorchester with all his friends, and was proudest when attending his grandchildren’s activities across the South Shore and then sharing those memories at Greenhills.

Cherished father of TJ Lacey and wife Michele of Weymouth, Julie O’Sullivan and her husband Jim of Norwell, John Michael Lacey & Joanne of Quincy. A proud and adoring “PAPA” to Julia, Bridget, Patrick, Sheamus, Sean & Brendan. Loving brother to Edward Lacey and Kevin Lacey of Braintree, MA.
