Thomas M. Bagley (Tom or Tommy) at the tender age of 42, passed away on Saturday morning, November 14, 2009 while in his sleep at home, comfortably in his own bed. He was born on February 28, 1967 in Phoenixville, PA. Tommy was the youngest of five children and the son to the kind and proud parents, Leon and Rachael Bagley. He is survived by his mother, Rachael, his brothers Timothy (T.J.) and James and his sisters, Scotty and Lesa. Tommy is also survived by T.J.'s wife, Deborah and their two sons Tucker and Luke; Lesa's husband Thomas Reed and their children Christopher, Alexander and Nancy (Atwell) and Scotty's husband David.

Tom is survived by his partner, Robert A. Lopez (Rob) of 10 years and 3 months. Rob is a professional engineer much like Tom's dad, Leon, who sadly was taken from us too soon, but after having a very fulfilling life. Rob is deeply saddened by the loss of his spouse as he will no longer see Tom's smiling face and hear his quick-witted comments. Tom disliked using that word "partner" because he said it sounded like "we were at a square dance."

Tom was a Fashion Designer specializing in denim and sportswear; working for such organizations as Polo Jeans, Perry Ellis, Bugle Boy, Group Three Design, The Li&Fung Group and Jeetish Designs, Inc. He was a graduate of the Philadelphia College of Textiles and Science (now Philadelphia University) where he launched his career into design and fashion. He loved art, Broadway musicals, old Hollywood memorabilia and new Hollywood gossip ("How you doin'!", as Wendy Williams would say). He always had a sketch pad nearby ready to bring a design idea to life. He was a life-long member of the Sigma-Phi-Epsilon (é�é�é�) Fraternity and wishes his brothers a long and prosperous life.
