Thank you very much for the very interesting auto-bio on Tom. Laurie
read it to Faith and me and we all enjoyed it .

It brought back many memories of course. Eleanor and I were about the
same age and she spent several summers on the farm with us. Tom,
much
younger, didn't stay but one or two short periods.

Tom once asked my Dad "Which horn does the cow blow?" e.g.

Another time Tom placed a milk pail under one of the cows - Tom told my
Dad "I putthe pail under the cow but she wouldn't do anything"!!!

Keep up the good work! Jim A.


Excerpt from Grace Lutheran Church website:

Pastor Thomas Waber was brought on staff as a part-time pastoral assistant. He served us faithfully until failing health caused him to retire.
