Bill Ritinski, Mohawk vice president of sales, sent the following: “In Tom’s memory, we have created a service award that annually recognizes dedication and exceptional efforts in customer service. The award is open not only to those in sales but to local customer service and logistics/drivers as well. When news of Tom’s passing filtered through our organization, the true gift of touching others that Tom had, became apparent. You see, Tom not only engaged with our sales group, he also was extremely popular and well thought of within our warehouse, driver and customer service co-workers. So many of them came forward to talk about Tom, it was simply amazing. The Tom Senft “Broad Shoulders” Excellence In Service Award will be given annually to those in our organization who display the qualities that Tom exhibited every day. We miss our friend and grieve with all his family and friends.”
