Hello GFSers,
With great sadness, I have to inform you of the
loss of Tom Mitchell on Saturday, August 23. Tom was struck with a brain
aneurism on Friday and unfortunately was unable to recover.
Services will be held at the church where the
Mitchell family were members, the Forum Boulevard Christian Church in Columbia,
Missouri where family and friends will be received from 5 to 8pm Tuesday, August
26. Final services will be held at 10AM Wednesday at the Church and burial
will follow at Memorial Park Cemetary.
Memorial contributions may be made to Show Me
Christian Youth Home, PO Box 6, La Monte, MO 65337; and Central Christian
College of the Bible, 911 E. Urbandale Drive, Moberly, MO. 65270. Tributes
can be left online at www.memorialfuneralhomeandcemetary.com
I want to thank Glenda and Tommy Pike, for passing
this unfortunate news, to me and pointing me in the right direction to obtain
the above information.
Our hearts and prayers go out to Tom's wife,
Melody; and their children Tommy and Melissa and their families.
Tom was a charter member of our Golden Fin Society,
a man who was of help to any of us who needed it. He volunteered to be our
'58 Fury tech expert and fulfilled the role beyond all expectations with prompt
returns of queries by members, and his quick response to developing GFS
standards for the '58 Fury. He suggested the idea of a GFS National, and
volunteered to host the very first one at his home in 1999. Tom also took
on the chore of providing our Nats T-Shirts and excelled at that job in each and
every National event through the present. He knew our cars as well as
anyone and was quick to share that information. He will be sorely missed
and never forgotten - a very special man.
Sincerely,
Jack Lewis
