Thomas Michael Hadican, 82, of Saint Louis, Missouri, passed away peacefully on November 10, 2025, in his hometown, surrounded by the love of his family. A devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend, Thomas leaves behind a legacy rooted in faith, family, and friends.
Born on July 12, 1943, Thomas shared over five decades of marriage with his beloved wife, Deborah Hadican (Monti). Together, they built a home filled with laughter, love, and devotion. He loved his children—Thomas Hadican, Jr. (Tina), Kevin Hadican (Kara), Kelly Crabtree (Ted), Colin Hadican (Candace), Erin Grate (Kyle), and Bridget Price (Nick), each of whom carries forward his values of compassion and perseverance.
His pride and joy were his 16 grandchildren – Grace, Avery, Ella, Reagan, Josie, Shea, Joey, Gabe, Seamus, Brinley, Louie, Charlotte, Jacob, Laney, Clara, and Noah.
Thomas was the beloved son of Joseph and Mary Hadican. He grew up in a warm and close-knit Catholic family alongside his siblings J. Martin Hadican (Gail), Eileen Nebel (Herman), Sr. Mary Kay Hadican (Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet), and Denny Hadican (Mary), From an early age, Thomas embodied hard work, dedication, and integrity—qualities that would shape every part of his life.
He spent his professional career working in the Automotive industry and found a home at Dave Sinclair Ford for the last 43 years. Tom’s passion for people, the car business, and the Sinclair family, made him one of the all-time greats.
When Tom wasn’t working or with his family, he spent most of his time in service to the Catholic Church. He went to Mass every morning at St. Michael the Archangel parish. He frequently visited and had a great passion for Most Holy Trinty Catholic Church and St. Joshpine Bakhita Catholic Church, attending Mass at these locations and leading several fundraising events for both. His perfect Sunday always included a visit to the Holy Spirit Adoration Sisters (The Pink Sisters).
Thomas’s family remembers him most for the simple and quiet acts of kindness and generosity that defined his life. Whether gathering around the dinner table, offering words of guidance, or lending a helping hand, he lived with humility and purpose. His presence was steady, and his love for his family unwavering.
His many friends remember him as someone that was always there for them, in good times and bad. He cherished his relationships with lifelong friends from the old neighborhood and loved making new friends every day as he never met a stranger.
