Thomas C. Naylor, Jr.

Our Father, Grandfather, Great Grandfather, and Friend, Thomas Clifton Naylor Jr passed away at his home in Dublin, NH Thursday morning, April 15, 2021, at the age of 89. He passed away from complications brought on by advanced age and a fractured hip.

Thomas was born February 28, 1932, the middle of three children and only son of Thomas and Rosanna Naylor. He was longtime resident of Dublin, NH, having spent his childhood there, then permanently settling after moving to Dublin in 1960. He had many different occupations throughout the years. He enjoyed working with his hands and did everything from owning a snack bar, running a catering business, and creating and running a company to do finish work on new homes. But his most enjoyable jobs were being greenskeeper at the Sullivan Golf Course and Peterborough Country Club and the grounds keeper at St Patrick Church in Jaffrey, caring for the church, school, and cemetery.

He was known for his love of cooking and could always be seen putting on a clambake, a bean hole supper, cookout, or just making one of his fantastic pies. He would never shy away from lending a helping hand to those that might need it or tackling any project, large or small.

He was married to the former Barbara Helen Flagg, and had eight children. He was preceded in death by his parents, Thomas and Rosanna Naylor, his wife Barbara, his two sisters, Margaret Walker and Elsie Belloli and a son Bradley (Bucky) Naylor.

He is survived by his children and their spouses, Peter Naylor (Pleasant Grove, UT), Randy T. Naylor (Merrimack NH), Sandra and Jon Cole (Marlborough, NH), Patty and Barry Echavarria (Peterborough, NH), John and Valerie Naylor (Dublin, NH), Paul (Scott)and Lynn Naylor (Greenfield, NH), and Cherina and Jay Cohen (Amherst, NH), as well as 20 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren
