Default Tom from Tomzwheels says HI

A couple of us here at Shadetreemotor used to work for Tom before he got sick.

He wanted us to tell all the great folks here Hi and let you know how much he appreciated and missed everyone here.

He had to retire and with the cancer and the meds he takes to slow it down has good days and bad days. He really was hoping to start up again but even on the good days does not have the stamina to do a lot of physical work. He still gets around and enjoys life but cannot do anything on a regular basis and he does everything in the world to avoid stress. But if you talk to him he'll tell you how he is doing but he always lets you know "Life is good"

I never knew what happened to him. Now I know but its good to hear about him. Wish his place was still around. A good wheel place 30 minutes from my house was awesome.

Glad to hear the update. I'll say the same thing I said when he first told us a couple yrs ago. One of my buddies dads had cancer and after a couple yrs he defeated all odds and was cancer free. Keep your head up man.
