Tom will be forever remembered for his friendship, laughter, being a straight shooter and the Best Chef!

My heartfelt condolences to Jen and the boys. Our son’s first job was at Iron Barley as a dishwasher. He learned quite a lot about the honor of hard work and ate well too. One our favorite New Years memories was one spent in a special dinner celebration.
He was generous to the community, often feeding his neighbors when the restaurant was located in Mount Pleasant, fundraising for schools like Lift for Life,. The music with the food where inside or on the patio, was always a sublime experience.
It truly is a loss. I’ll bet the BBQ in Heaven just got a whole lot better. RIP.

I guess they need good beer in Heaven.
You were such an influence on me with brewing and cooking. People will never know what they have missed if they never rubbed shoulders with you.
The STL beer festivals we did together will never be forgotten. Words can not explain to your family and friends what you did and meant to me. My thoughts, words and prayers are with you and your loved ones, hoping the love of all you touched eases the pain of those you loved and touched. RIP

Tom, you were really larger than life. Aaron and I always enjoyed our time with you as you were getting tattooed, or at your phenomenal restaurant. Truly a “good ol’ boy” in the best way. We were shocked to hear of your passing. God bless your soul, may He watch over your family. I pray your wonderful wife and sons find comfort in knowing how loved and admired you were. Always quick with a story and making people smile was your nature. You will be so missed.

Gen, It breaks my heart to know Tom is no longer in physical form. His larger than life spirit will live on forever. I met Tom back in the 80s at Fraziers Brown Bag, then had the good luck to be his Bud rep for many years. Many good meals and many good times at the Iron Barley on Virginia Ave. I will see you Friday. All my love,All the time. Nick Lorts ( The Budman)

Fellow member of The Brews for over two decades. Great brewers. Great chef. Great guy.
I’ll remember that smile of his forever. What an honor to say Tom was a pert of my life. Beer brewing lost a giant and The St. Louis Brews will be at a lost. Thanks Tom for being…Tom Coghill.

Sweet Gen, I am heartbroken by this news. My deepest condolences to you, your sons and family, and Tom’s sisters.
Tom was larger than life and I can’t imagine that he is gone. He was talented, kind, humble, generous, and a world-class smart aleck. The world is a smaller place without him. May he rest in peace.
Peace and comfort to you all,
Liz

I have been Blessed to have called Tom my Friend for about 52 years. Never short for words always so creative even if we did get in trouble for some of his ideas. He was as genuine as he was generous. He would give anybody the shirt off back and think nothing of it. He was a Master at his craft and worked tirelessly to get there !! I will miss that smile and gravelly voice but the memories will always be with me. Godspeed my Friend Until we meet again !! Praying for Gen and the Family for some Peace in this time of Sorrow !!
