Santa Tom. Tho I don't remember how many years , I still remember Tom. If I guess  , it would be four years this month. Tom was a Veteran and  Santa to many in his home town. Those of us who knew him will remember him. angel

I rode and shared rooms with him on trips and rallies, and enjoyed every bit of his good company and character.  We spent several evenings talking late into the wee hours about our past lives and experiences (military and other) and he was a good friend to me.

And the waitresses at a lunch stop took turns sitting on his lap.  (all in good fun)

          Met him the first time in Eureka Springs. Ross-daprez-and I were drinking an ice cold Old Style beer. Tom said as how he hadn't had an Old Style in a Long time. Ross got him a cold one and the Friendship began!  cooldude We as a Club Are Losing far too many FRIENDS!  Cry RIDE SAFE.

Met Tom on one of my trips to Tennessee and riding with a group headed by Smokin' Joe heading to the Britman Memorial Day Ride, I think - it has been a while. 

As I am in the entertainment agency business, spoke with Tom about his adventures as Santa and he had some pretty good stories.  A nice guy and a good rider.
