The Ford Barn

Early in the fall I was dealing with Tom on some parts for his 39" pickup.
He was in the process of painting fenders and hood in his shop.
A couple of weeks later I called regarding those parts ,called several
times the next week and a half.

On my last attempt a woman answered and told me Tom was
in the hospital and was not expected to last thru the weekend.
He had mentioned health problems but didn't seem too concerned.
Just before Thanksgiving that woman, his daughter, called to inform
me that Tom had passed on Halloween. He was in his early 80's.

Whenever FordBarn was mentioned, in our conversations, he had
only good things to say about it and the members here.

RIP Tom.
