 THOMAS BOLLING GAY IIIROCKLEDGE Thomas Bolling Gay III, 48, made his transition through the Golden Gates on Tuesday, June 22, 2004. Tom came into the world on May 12, 1956. Born in Milledgeville, Ga., he lived in Jacksonville before moving to Rockledge.  He started work at the Kennedy Space Center in 1983 and had a very successful career. Tom loved the river, fishing, gardening, summer breezes, thunderstorms, and going out dancing with his wife. He was predeceased by his parents, Thomas Bolling Gay II and Elizabeth Coleman Gay. Tom is loved by and leaves behind his beautiful wife and soulmate, Jodie Gay; children, Rachel Canady, Caity Gay, Audrey Canady, Lindsey Gay, and James Canady III all of Rockledge; sister, Sallie Frady of Milledgeville, Ga.; numerous relatives; many special friends; and a special furry friend, Yoda, who will miss his daily walks. We remember Tom as an extremely caring and loving person who always put others before himself. He was loved by and will be sorely missed by many people. We all take comfort in knowing that he is at peace. A Memorial Service will be celebrated Friday, June 25th at 5 p.m. at Beckman-William son Funeral Home in Viera. The family will receive friends one hour prior to service.
