I recall Mr. Woolaway giving me a job opportunity at Tuscarora Plastics many years ago....he was a great mentor and inspiration to me.

Dear Shirley: Tom and you became treasured friends during our Beaver years. Tom combined the eminence of stature in his accomplishments with an endearing humility in his rapport with and care for friends and causes, a combination we honor in sharing this loss with you and your family.
