Thomas F. Flood III passed away unexpectedly and was fortified with the sacraments of the Holy Mother Church on December 23, 2023.
He was born to Thomas and Rosalie Flood on June 16, 1952, in St. Louis, MO. Tom graduated from McBride High School, attended Rolla, graduated from UMSL with a degree in Economics and had a Masters in Economics from Catholic University in D.C.
Tom worked for the Census Bureau in Suitland, MD, and resided in Maryland for 36 years. Tom retired from the Census Bureau in 2012 and moved back to St. Louis, living on a small farm in Robertsville, MO.
Tom is survived by his wife, Christine McGregor; his children, Mark Flood and Erin Flood; his sisters, Ronnie and Suzie; his brothers, John and Tony; and many other family members, cousins, nieces, and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Tom and Rosalie Flood; his sister, Adriane; and his nephews, Frederick and John Edward.
He had a great sense of humor and irony that we will all miss. Tom loved his puppy dogs and horses. He was a die-hard fan of the St. Louis Cardinals, Blues hockey, and really any and all sports. He was excited about attending the new St. Louis Soccer team. He also enjoyed attending the St. Louis Symphony, Sunday afternoon concerts. He enjoyed fine dining and nature. He was involved with Habitat for Humanity in Maryland and Meals on Wheels. He enjoyed the Missouri Botanical Garden and the Forest Park Art Museum.
In lieu of flowers (if you wish, though his favorite flower was the Peace Rose), contributions can be made in Tom's name to Longmeadow Rescue Ranch in Franklin County, MO.
