I would consider two monitors:

- One local that restarts tomcat if the process is not 
  alife anymore.
  For this monitor ps can be enough. More sophisticated
  checks should only be done if you are shure that you 
  want to automatically restart tomcat if this checks
  fail.

- One remote that calls/mails the service if tomcat is 
  not working. What exactly 'not working' means and which 
  checks you have to implement to verify that depends on 
  the application and the requirements.
