Obituary

Tom " Tango" Broderick, 84
Hoopster, Horseman, and a Jukebox Aficionado.
Tom passed away peacefully on Thursday, December 9, 2021.
Preceded in death by his parents, John and Virginia Broderick; brother Joe, sisters Rosemary and Kathleen; brother-in-law, Dave Ross; nephew, Dave Ross; niece, Mary Margaret Broderick; nephew, Tom Floyd and nephew Jim Cummings.

Survived by Mary Marler (née Lynch); Tom, Darcy, and Casey Ross; Terry, Tim, and Dan Broderick; and Mary Ann, Jeannette, Laura, and Kevin Cummings; Jyme Ross as well as countless family, students, players, and friends.

He was a renowned basketball player at Drake, later coaching at St. Dennis, St. Patrick's, and Troy. He was inducted into the Legends of Lockport Basketball.

He asked for no memorial and no obituary—sorry, Tango. He asked for his ashes to be spread at Arlington Park. Bet the 1-2-9 trifecta in Tango's name. Heck, yeah!
