On December 23, 1963 Thomas W. Price (Tom) was born in Towanda Pennsylvania, son of Roger and Joan Price and sister, Susan. When he was four, his younger sister Barbara joined the family. Growing up in the eastern part of the United States, Tom was a lively boy who enjoyed everything life had to offer. Roger fondly remembers him as “a happy kid who loved life. He enjoyed getting up in the morning, playing, fighting with his sisters.” Tom’s mother Joan recalls that “he ate everything in sight.”
Roger’s work for GMAC brought the family to Littleton, Colorado. At 17 Tom began his junior year at Columbine High School where he met his future wife, Cathy at new student orientation. Tom and Cathy began dating soon after and continued to date through high school being awarded “Most Likely to Get Married” in their senior class.
Tom graduated from high school in 1982, and continued his education at the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley. His freshman year, he joined the Delta Sigma Phi Fraternity and made lifelong friendships. Tom graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in accounting in May 1986 and became a Certified Public Accountant in the state of Colorado.
His career began at Deloitte and Touche where he was an auditor, but quickly transitioned to Wyoming Refining Company. For the next 28 years, Tom worked at WRC and moved from accounting into the information technology side of the company. Tom was passionate about IT and thoroughly enjoyed working with the Denver and Wyoming employees.
