Thomas A.'s Story
I was born and raised in Grand Forks, North Dakota and lived at 115 Seward Avenue in Riverside Park. I attended St. Michaels Grade School and two years at St. James. In Grand Forks half of my friends went to Central and the other half to St. James. At the end of my second year at St. James my father was appointed a U.S. Federal Judge and we moved to Fargo. I spent my remaining two years of High School at Shanley of Fargo and then attended UND where I received my business degree in 61 and my Law Degree in 63.
I married and have four children, eight grand children and our 50th wedding anniversary is coming up. I engaged in the Practice of Law and at the same time became Fargo Municipal Judge in 1972---I was elected on my 33rd birthday so that was cool. I am still Judge but retired from the private practice of law in December of 2008.
I have...Expand for more
a horse, two cats and want a replacement for my Border Collie who died last year at 13. I've been told if I get another border collie I might need another wife so I'm going slow on that one.
We have a lake place in Minnesota that keeps the family close and just moved into a new home overlooking a park in Fargo. My last move--if they take me out of here it is in a box or in a condition that I won't know I'm being moved :-)
I love the work I do and will probably keep doing it until a health issue, death, or an election puts me into permanent retirement....
I'm posting on June 23rd as an update. My wife relented and I now have the Border Collie replacement and after suffering a serious year long illness, from which I'm now well on the road to recovery, I will complete my term as Fargo Municipal Judge after 40 years. I have not sought reelection.
