Thomas Raphael Yanosko, age 73, left this planet for a better place on November 3, 2015. Beloved husband of 51 years to LaVerne (nee Csincsar) and cherished father of Kimberly. He is survived by his sister MaryAnn, brother-in-law Richard, and sister-in-law Audrey, plus many nieces and nephews. In addition, he will truly miss his treasured friends. Born in Cleveland, Ohio on December 8, 1941, he lived his life to the fullest. He served his country proudly in the United States Army stationed in Germany, and returned home to marry his high school sweetheart. He spent the first 49 years of his life in Cleveland before moving to Aurora, Colorado in 1990. Known for his generous spirit and giving heart, he gave his all to a career he loved with United Airlines for 35 years. Once retired in 2003 he spent his spare time making plans and dreaming big for what he would do with his lottery winnings, as he faithfully played in hopes of hitting just one big jackpot. He is now in the company of his mother Veronica, his father, Matthew, his brothers Raymond and Joseph, and his sisters Rosemary and Monica. All services and interment will be held privately. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to a charity of your choice in Thomas's memory.
