Thomas Paul Sedlak

Thomas Paul Sedlak passed away peacefully on March 30, 2026, surrounded by his family. Born in Homestead on October 13, 1938, Tom’s 87 years were rich with family, community, and a profound love of the outdoors. He saw the end of World War II, served as a U.S. Army lineman in Korea, and came of age in the 50s and 60s making friends, skiing, boating, and generally enjoying life.

Tom always lived life on his own terms. While he nurtured a successful career in sales, he did so in order to provide for his family and to support the outdoor lifestyle he loved. He was an avid hunter and fisherman, and an enthusiastic vegetable gardener who triumphed over the challenges of his hillside garden. He took great joy in life, had a remarkable ability to connect with people and make them laugh, and he never met a pastry he didn’t like. He will be remembered as a good husband, a good father and a great friend.

Tom leaves behind a beloved family: his wife Alice (Tuttle) Sedlak; their children Janet Sedlak and Dan Sedlak; and grandson Will Sedlak. He is survived by his sister Loretta (the late Melvin) White, along with numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, Thomas A. Sedlak and Margaret (Feher) Sedlak, and his brother-in-law Melvin White.

Family and friends will be received at the George Irvin Green Funeral Home, located at 3511 Main Street, Munhall, Pennsylvania 15120 on April 6, 2026, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., and again from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. The funeral service will take place on April 7, 2026, beginning at 11:00 a.m. at the Funeral Home with Pastor Don Kephart officiating. In lieu of flowers please consider making a donation in Tom’s name to your favorite charity.

Tom’s legacy is one of steadfast commitment, enduring friendship, and a love of life and nature that inspired those lucky enough to know him. He will be deeply missed but fondly remembered.
