It is all too fitting that Tommy be recognized and applauded for his many years of selfless contributions to the people of Brooklawn and the community of South Jersey.

With the unwavering support of his wife Dee and their three children Erin, Colin and Shane, Councilman MacAdams strove and succeeded in making Brooklawn a better place to be.
