I'm sure Tom still has most, if not all, his nice Fox's and I'm sure other nice trinkets as well. He may have even added a gun or two.

Tom lost two of his very good double shotgun friends, Frank Kiem and Russ Bickel and that may have taken some of the sizzle out of it.

He still likes his bird hunting and his lab's.

Tom and his wife Carol are pretty involved in older cars, especially one's with air cooled engines as in his Fox car and Franklin's.

It would be nice to see him once in a while at some of the shows or double gun shoots. Be nice if maybe he wrote an article or two for the DGJ also.

Just my thoughts

I spent three full days at the Buffalo Bill Historical Center with the Remington Society annual seminar in 2003 and again at the Buffalo Bill Center of the West with them in 2014. Those sliding out cabinets with the Bill Furnish collection and other guns is a grand improvement over the way they were racked in cases in 2003!! We did find that many of Bill's Remington doubles were mis-identified. Hopefully they have corrected that by now.

The .410-bore CHE-Grade Parker in a cabinet with "another .410-bore" is the Robert W. Woodruff gun --



The count I made in 2014 showed over 100 Parkers on display in the Cody Firearms Museum.
