Thomas Kiley

October 11, 1942 — August 11, 2018


Thomas M. Kiley, 75, of New Plymouth, passed away at his home surrounded by loving family on August 11, 2018. Tom was born on October 11, 1942 to Ruth and Welland Kiley in Columbus, OH. He had a vast music career and played steel guitar all over the U.S. and abroad. His love of music lasted his entire lifetime.

He had a successful career selling fishing equipment because he knew everything there was to know about the sport. If he wasn’t working or playing music, he could be found fishing somewhere.

He was a loving Husband, Son, Brother, Father and Grandfather who loved life and lived every minute to its fullest.

Tom is survived by his wife Chris Kiley; mother Ruth Kiley; sister Carole (Ernie) Roberts; daughters Annette (Philip) Estep and Suzanne (Kenneth) Helman; grandchildren, Jeremy (Stephanie), Tarah, Philip, Hannah, Karissa (Ryan) and Natalie; 8 Great grandchildren; and many nieces, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
