        Sad News - Tom Curran

 

We have sad news to share – Tom Curran, lifetime SID member and former Planar employee, died on Tue / 12-June-2012.

Tom was an early employee of Planar (since 1988).  He was very active in the display community and the SID organization for many years.  He served as publications chairman for SID from 1975-82, then again from 1988-92. He got the SID President Award for his service to the organization.  More recently while in retirement Tom attended PNW-SID talks, mostly in Portland.  For people that knew Tom, it is a big loss.  He was a real gentleman and will be missed.  Tom was 85 years old and was active until the last couple of weeks.  A more detailed obituary is at "About SID" in the main SID web pages.
