I was sad to learn of the passing of Tom Lasley a few weeks ago. Tom, along with Mike Nealy of Thunder Media, presented a plan to G.I. Joe’s for a ticket outlet system in late 1978. G.I. Joe’s went for the idea and picked me to manage the Box Office, working with Tom, who took care of the ticket-side of the business.
We had Box Offices in the five Portland area stores and the system made tickets easily accessible to folks in those days before computerized tickets.
It was great working with Tom Lasley. He was a fine human being and I know will be missed by many.
OMG…many memories of U of O
with classmates including David
and roomates dating at CarsonHall.
Then shopping for myself and family
at McLoughlin GIJ. Bought my last pairs
of running gear at close out. As life comes full
circle I am happy to see all is well and David looking healthy
and happy. Looking forward
to the book. Bless you all
