In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brother, David Lodovico, nephew, David Lodovico Jr., great-niece, Sophia Lodovico, and three brothers-in-law, William M. Flynn, Jack (Kathryn) Flynn and Robert Flynn. He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Beverly Lodovico, his children: Thomas F. (Kelly) Lodovico Jr. of Beaver, Steven W.

Thomas was a proud veteran of the U.S. Navy, having served in the Vietnam War. He worked for nearly 30 years at the former Westinghouse, now Eaton Corporation, enjoying a well deserved early retirement. He was an active former member of the Steel City Boogie Dance Club. Thomas will not only be remembered for his intense love of travel every chance he got, but for his master carpentry skills. He was not your average sports enthusiast. He often created extra long lunches and made excuses to steal time away from work to watch his children, and grandchildren play in all their sporting events. He will be remembered for his collection of beautiful, extravagant sweaters that he collected over his travels, but also in the home movies he created.
