My good friend Tom Zink has been out of touch with me and several other people for well over a year and a half now. Several people I know have been unable to contact him. His business number has been shut down. He has left deposits on rare furniture and never came back to get the items I just found out from another friend. Tom had also recently pick up a large collection of globes that we had spoken about several times that he was very excited about. So something is not right. His number is still on but no one ever picks up or returns the calls. I heard someone spoke to him recently but I do not believe that to be true. Anyone heard from Tom? He lived in Tygh Valley, Oregon. Thanks, Scott Benjamin 440-355-6608 9-8 EST.

Unable to contact Roy. Mike said he spoke to him a while back...The last I can actually confirm anyone speaking with him is last January that is for sure. He's just a good friend I'm only concerned that's all. I just got a new lead I'll let you know what develops. Scott B.

Talked with him three weeks ago, just working and doing what he does. He is building a house as he told me, was inquiring about a 7ft bath tub we had out of the state hospital.

I to have been trying to contact Tom for well over a year. Graig, if you have talked with him would you mind PM me a current number for him as I need to catch up. I have known and been friends with Tom for over 15 years. I am having trouble beliving he is still around and just won't return phone calls. Please, if he is OK, just help me get in touch. Thanks-

some people just drop out of sight sometimes, I've known a few like that, I'm sure he has his own reasons.

He called me out of the blue, and I do not have his number stored.

Maybe this is why he "disappeared", nobody has heard from him but everybody seems to know his business.
