Thomas Foy Obituary

Minnetonka - Thomas George Foy, age 85, of Minnetonka, MN, went to be with Jesus after he passed away peacefully at Fairview Southdale Hospital on Saturday, April 5th, 2025. He was a loving husband, father, friend and follower of Jesus. He and and his wife, Gail moved their family to Northfield after relocating his woodworking business there. They resided in Northfield for many years along with his family and the many foster children that they took-in. They attended and served in a variety of ways at Emmaus Church and Tom sung with the Emmaus Folk at that time. He also surprised locals by winning the Defeat of Jesse James Days Beard Contest in the eighties. A Celebration of Life will be June 6, 11 AM, Hope Church, 7132 Portland Ave, Richfield, MN.
