  1. Pam, I’m so very sorry for your loss…..Tom sounded like a very interesting man. Keep him memory alive in your heart always. I remember you from the grocery store in Mt. Vernon when you would come in with your Mom. I always loved your laugh. With sympathy, Annamae Baker

  2. I am so very sorry for our loss. I fondly remember fun times with my first cousin growing up in Lisbon. Our paths crossed again in Overland Park, Kansas when I moved there shortly after getting married. Tom was working as a brewmaster and my husband and I loved to sample his tasty creations. Tom was also helpful when our first daughter was born. He passed along his son’s outgrown baby clothes for us to use which we thought was so kind and generous. Tom will be dearly missed. He left this earth too soon. Blessings to his children, Terry and Pam. My heart breaks.

  3. I remember riding bikes, and running all over Lisbon and Mt. Vernon in the 60’s and 70’s together. Birthday parties in the Amana’s with your mom was a great time. I loved that big old house you grew up in. Your mother was always good to me, and you were always up for any bad idea I came up with. You’ll be missing my friend. Boys like you as friends made my childhood in Lisbon great. Matthew W. Polhamus Mechanicsville, Ia
