Scouts & Parents – at our meeting last Tuesday, Mike Dixon came by and told some of us of the passing of his Father Tom.  As long as Mike has been a part of our troop, Tom has been a part of the troop, and that has been about 18 years.  Tom and his wife were prolific travelers, and he would always bring the scouts back some scout memorabilia from whatever Asian city he visited.  Tom had a real passion for the traditions of scouting, so he always encouraged the scouts to always wear a full uniform.  No doubt, it set the scouts apart from the world around them.  Since Covid, Tom has had to stay pretty distant, so it has been two years since he has been around the scouts.  I hope we all can be as passionate as Tom about the training and making of young boys into great men for the benefit of our country.

 

We will miss Tom, but I will never forget him.  Blessings and comfort to the Dixon family for their loss.
