Does anyone know how Tom died?  We were in grade school together.  He was the bold one then.  We thought he walked on the wild side.

Tom was a good person,and a cool dude. He went out for a long time with Sara Bailey, she and he split, and she married the guy with the seat shop on Central ave.

Ronnie is correct..Tom and I went together all through high school and a year after.  Tom joined the service, married, had 2 children..After service he became a fireman and lived in Hernando, Fl.  Ill health in his later years forced his retirement.  He came to see my husband and I about a year before his passing,  Unbelievably he still looked almost the same as he did in high school (no wrinkles, very little grey hair). Tom and my brother and some of the old gang remained friends all these years.  He's missed by all who knew and loved him.     Jim and I are still married (50 years next June) Jim did own Rayco Seat Covers for over forty years. Jim is in the last stages of COPD, which forced my retirement so I can take care of him..I missed the reunion and seeing everyone but we really don't go out very often..I'm hoping we might be able to go to one of the birthday get togethers.   Sara Bailey Pauch, St. Petersburg, Fl

Thanks for sharing the memories about Tom  It sounds like he had a full, although short life.
