Thomas William Pollock, 61, of Cedar Rapids passed away Tuesday, May 17, 2016 after a long battle with COPD and Pulmonary Fibrosis.

Survived by brothers Scott Pollock (Kathy) of Eagan, Minnesota and Mike Pollock (Netta) of Omaha, Nebraska; nieces Jordan and Emily Pollock and Katie Wallace; and nephews Drew Pollock and Ben Vlieger.
Tom recently celebrated his 20- year anniversary working for the University of Iowa Hospitals in Iowa City, Iowa. Prior to that, he worked in residential property management and the clothing industry.
Tom loved people and could engage most anyone in a friendly conversation. He was extremely loyal to his family and friends and felt great joy with their successes. Tom was a gifted chef and liked nothing more than to host or be hosted when a high quality meal and engaging banter were involved. Tom’s rescued cat Gabby will miss his endless love and attention.
A memorial celebration will be held at a future date.
Memorials in Tom’s honor may be directed to the Humane Society, the American Lung Association, or the University of Iowa Dance Marathon.
