As many have said, Tom was a mentor to me. He was the best teacher I ever had. He cared so much about quality, he actually developed innovations in the foodservice industry and developed many processing practices with suppliers. He was really smart, fun and a great friend. I think of him everyday. Love to Sondra and family, John and Barb Sturdivant

Tom was a Physician, but enjoyed working in the Food Service Business. He was dedicated to finding the best products at S E. Rykoff & Co. to sell to our many customers. I still remember walking up and down that big flight of stairs. There will never be a company like that again. RIP. Ron Estes
