Karl's Kolumn

RIP… Tom Smith, our condolences to his family. Tom Smith Tractor in Hartford was a staple in this community going as far back as I remember. Tom, along with his father Tom Sr., was always willing and able to help out a fellow businessman. With anything from a nail in the garden tractor tire to a new full set of tires, they could get the job done fast and efficiently.

Tom was always supportive of the Tri-City Record and his business was present on these pages for almost 30 years! Tom’s obituary can be found on Page 6.
