THOMAS H. LARSEN

Tom Lawson and I met on the first annual cross country bike ride for the American Lung Association in 1987. Him and I just Struck it up as good friends and he was a great person for me

I just looked online and found out that Tom passed a while ago I'm so sorry for your loss and see. I know the last couple years I've sent a couple texts but no response and birthday card no response but didn't think my job it you know since communication was haphazard. Again I'm so sorry for your loss. Tom was a great man and I really appreciated him

With fond appreciation of Tom's generosity, as well as memories of the restaurant with its unique service and pecan rolls. He graciously hosted 3 fundraisers for a scout program which I managed in the 90's.

I met Tom when I was in my 20´s. We were both on the Board of Businesses for Social Responsibility. He was a classy man. Peace and blessings to him and his family.

I was sorry to read of Tom's passing! I was hired as his first Manager at the Pillar House in 1970 & felt it was a learning situation & privilege to work under Tom. He & I had a following out 2 years later as I pursued my Military Retirement by joining the USAF RESERVES as a pilot that consequently took me away from my job on occasional weekends! We often saw eachother in Chatham and had a friendly relationship! My association with Tom & the Pillar House will always be a highlight in my...

Sweet sweet sweet! I feel so grateful and thankful to have experienced Tom and his darling Nancy!
