I was a nephew of my great and awesome Uncle Thomas Adams. I love him and will miss him. He gave a summer job at his Boom City stand back in 2000-2001. He paid me 25% of the profit. Pretty generous. I asked him of all people why did he want me to work for him? He said because I was doing something with my life. He trusted me to. He just had great instincts to. He knew that I wouldn't steal from him. He trusted me with the money that was being made through the Boom City Stand. He treated me very well during those 2 summers working for him at Boom City. I could buy breakfast, lunch and dinner every day and mocha's at Boom City in between or anything to drink. He did almost anything he could to make me happy except let my family stay at his house because he wanted me to concentrate on the business we were running together. At that time I was living and going to college in Bellingham at Northwest College so I really needed the money! Out of all the people that I worked for at Boom City he was the best employer!! We were a great team and made each other laugh and alot of customers. He made working at Boom City fun. He loved the way I was natural at selling fireworks. I'm a peoples person by nature. I love you uncle and will miss you. Uncle I know that you believed in Christ Jesus and had alot of faith in the God of Abraham, Isaac, & Jacob, and are in Heaven right now. I'll see you in Heaven dancing on the streets of Gold with Christ Jesus our Savior some day Uncle. Thank you Jesus for the time I got to spend with my beloved Uncle Tommy. Amen.
