I don't mean to come across as just being curious but what brought Tom to Wausau? I think I may have known Tom. Did he work at Taco Bell in high school? I think the Tom I knew did and that would mean he went to high school at DC Everest. He died so young and in some way I knew Tom. He was such a genuinely nice guy. If he worked with at me at Taco Bell... oh boy, we had fun!! What a kind guy. I am extending my sympathy for a Tom Hummel that I just know I knew.. His family is in my thoughts. (I think he married a woman named Denise but she wasn't mentioned so again not sure) Please know I am sincere.
