RIP Tom, you were a true friend to the Model A hobby!

I cant think of anyone who hasn't been affected by this virus.
My condolences to his family. A great loss to the Model A Fraternity.
Godspeed Tom Wesenberg.

Tom was a stalwart on this site, and I always looked forward to reading his many posts. He was a fountain of knowledge and a friend to all. God bless his soul and may he Rest In Peace.

A sad reminder that the Covid pandemic is NOT over and that we need to wear a mask and avoid the knuckleheads who don't! Better safe than sorry!

PLEASE guys, don't make this another thread that gets out of control.

We miss our friend and a very knowledgeable Model "A" enthusiast. Tom knew lots about other vintage cars electrical systems too.

About how many EVR's had he installed on the Model A powerhouse???
He rebuilt 3 for me over the 11 years I knew him through this site, never met or spoke with him, but just a genuine honest man.

I talked with Tom quite often and he was a really good guy. The community took a big hit with his loss.

Nelson C · 02-25-2022, 12:03 PM

I have also seen many of Tom's posts and replies.

While the Model A brings us together, it's really the fellowship and generosity as Tom exhibited that is most important.

He reminds us just how precious life is!

I first met Tom at a Model A Workshop in Rochester, Minnesota that was put on by Brent Terry. I talked to him about an idea I had for a Model A part and he gave me some good ideas. He was friendly and spoke to me like I was an old friend rather than taking an attitude and telling me how much more he knew. I found that he knew a lot! If I saw his name on a posting I just had to read it and see what he had to say. I learned a lot from him through the years. I will miss Tom.

I have two of Toms Gennies (28 slant case models) equipped with the EVR. He was a great man and a valued friend.

RIP TOM, We will all miss you mate

It is very sad when you see the many private messages you have on record with either Tom, or Bill Williamson, life seems to be passing us by quickly.
