Hello and welcome to the Tom Montgomery Cedar Point
Tribute Site. Tom, a founding member of the Owens Corning Cedar Point travelling
road show, was unable to physically make it to the 10th annual trip to the park this year.
Fortunately, we decided to bring a little Tom along with us so he could be there in
spirit.
This led to a couple of problems:
1. We didn't have anything of Tom's we could
bring. So we decided to bring a Dilbert doll with a picture of Tom attached to
Dilbert's face.
2. We didn't have any pictures of Tom. So
we decided to put the face of another friend on Dilbert and just call him 'Tom.'
Sound strange? Well it wasn't half as strange as some of the looks we got.
Anyway, here is a chronology of the day's events as
they pertained to Tom. Let me just tell you this -- Tom had a good time.
