Happy Birthday Tom! I wish we lived closer together so we could celebrate our entrance into the 80's.. I will lift a toast to you nonetheless. Here's to many, many more enjoyable exchanges of Sunbeam information!

Thanks to all for your well wishes. I was amazed that my 5 kids reached out to so many corners of my connections and collected 105 video comments and tributes from family, friends, and former coworkers. The great day started when I heard some banging on my front porch and found them putting up a banner on our porch. I left them alone until they escorted me outside to see their tribute. Here’s a couple pics of what they set up. Later they treated me to a crab leg dinner in the driveway, and after dark they showed me the 60 minute video of 105 comments plus several e-mail responses. Indeed it was a great day. I think I’m going to try for 90. I only feel about 40!5447408F-E685-4548-A7C8-614CF622574B.jpegE3249CF6-B129-41BF-9FB1-0A571FBE5F8D.jpeg

I was fortunate to meet up with Tom and his lovely bride today. They were both in great spirits and it’s clear they’re still in love like teenagers. We should all be so lucky! Many more, my friend… many, many more!

Tom was my first in-person introduction to the club. He welcomed me at the Nashville Invasion in 2012. I had no road worthy Sunbeam, so I flew down from NJ and looked for the red Alpine with the car rack. If I didn't find that, he said to ask for him by name as everyone pretty much knows him. Tom is such a warm and helpful person and has pointed me in the proper direction on more than one occasion. I am a smarter Alpine person in large part to his personal assistance as well as his contributions to the forum. Enjoy 80 and many, many years after that.
