Thomas Christopher Bigelow

Its Sad to realize someone who was a big part of your life is not with us any longer. I frequently find myself telling people I worked for "Tom at NEW TECH". Not a day passes with out a smile, a memory or questions of how would the New Tech Team handle this. Tom was always tuff but fair. Memories from the time I bought my first Bridgeport from tom, to the late days at the shop with card guide assemblies, camp stoves, beer and pizza (pizza - tied to a rope --- huh??) And those early Saturday...

I was so sorry to hear about the families loss. Just wanted to let you all know you're in my thoughts.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...

The first of not enough conversations with Tom lead me to respect and admire him. We discussed our experiences within the machine industry, love of cars, and even some racing. I hope the best for all of his family and friends.
