To the family--I did not know Thomas, but did work with his father, Frank, at Lucas Distributing back in the 1950's. I worked under Frank delivering beer and Frank made those 2 years most enjoyable because of how he treated me. Looking back I have fond memories of those times and hope your family has them of your time with Thomas.
