He served in many other positions in the office such as Shop Manager, Estimator, and Field Manager. In 1986 Tom became the acting President of Young's Iron Works. In 1999 his wife Claudia joined the team as CFO taking over Ruth's position. In 2013 Claudia became the acting President of Young's Iron Works. Tom still does some detailing and estimating and helps out when needed.
