Linda and family, so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. I first met Tom years ago when I worked at Fleet Farm. Also a few times at Kamp's. He was a man with a very kind heart and a great sense of humor.

Linda & family, So sorry to hear of Tom's
passing. I extend my sympathies to you
all. Tom was a great guy and will be
missed by many.
I don't know if you remember me, Linda,
but I worked with you at Presto many
years ago. I ran twin machines across
the aisle from you, until I became an
operator. Always loved to come to your machine and hear your take on what was happening in the mill.
Again, you all have my sympathy.
God Bless.
