Critz's personal effects were mailed to his mother, Lucille Critz. The items included clothing and other miscellaneous articles.
Thomas F. Critz's father, Mr. Harry Critz, received a letter from James F. Smith from the Memorial Division on October 1, 1948, which informed the family that Thomas F. Critz's remains could not be recovered, but “this does not forever close the door to future investigation, should any credible additional evidence bearing on the case come to attention.”
