Victor "Tom" Thomas Meleo, born January 23rd, 1941 in Los Angeles, CA, passed peacefully April 22nd, 2025 at home in Lindsay, CA. We announce the passing with lovely memory. Tom was the eldest son to Nicholetta Donvito and Victor Meleo. Tom lived a beautiful 84 years of life. A very respectful, honorable, caring, and hardworking man.

Tom graduated from Cal Poly University to become an Agricultural Teacher. Mr. Meleo enjoyed working with the animals and being around the L.H.S students making sure they all had a bright successful future ahead of them; he never had children of his own but he cared for all his students like they were his. Tom enjoyed the outdoors, he took pride in his beautiful acres of citrus orchards.

After some time, Tom uncovered his talent for Vintage Chevy restoration, his private Chevrolet collection is one of a kind with the most beautiful pristine unique cars you will ever see! Tom Meleo is a VCCA (Vintage Chevrolet Club of America) member #34 who started the Four Cylinder Tours 33 years ago to get more of these era vehicles back on the road to travel all across the world! He has poured his love and joy into all he has done. His loving memory will forever live on in the community and all the lives he has touched.
