Thomas J. Schloder, 82, of 1134 E. Eschbach Road, St. Marys, PA passed away peacefully, following a lengthy illness Wednesday, November 22, 2023 at DuBois Nursing Home with his family by his side.

He was born February 13, 1941, in St. Marys, son of the late Wilfred and Dolores Hoffman Schloder. 

Tom was a lifelong resident of St. Marys and a graduate of Central Catholic High School, Class of 1959.  He was an avid member of the Jaycees out of high school for many years.  He started his career at Keystone, but longed to pursue his dream to build furnaces and own his business. 

He dedicated many hours and traveling to gain experience and in the early 80’s Tom proudly founded Abbott Control and Fabricating on Madison St. in St. Marys.  The business grew and he soon moved to the former Mex-America building on Trout Run Rd.  His business continued to flourish and he finally bought land and built Abbott from the ground up where it remains currently located today.  He retired in 2006.

On February 24, 1993, in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, Tom married Kimberly Groll, who survives.  Although not long enough, they were blessed to share their love in marriage for 30 years.
