Tom’s life work was growing, grading and packing Long Island potatoes with his brand name “Tiger Spuds.” In the 1970s, Tom Discovered St. Croix, and it became his special paradise.
Tom is survived by his wife of 57 years, Peg; daughters: Diana and Erin; sons: Tom and Ross (Jenn); and four grandchildren.
Any memorial donations may be sent to the St. Croix Reformed Church, the Woman’s Coalition or a local charity of choice.
