Tom Singleton


Tom Singleton Bio:


After returning from my mission to Argentina in 1971 I moved to Logan to attend Utah State University. Shortly after arriving in Logan I met my future wife, the former Lynne Jorgensen, an alumnus of Sky View High School class of 69. We have been married 36 years and have three boys and two girls who range in age between 23 and 34 years old.

After completing a masters degree in economics at USU, I have been a model of stability as we have lived in Providence, Utah for the last 32. We were in our first house near the mouth of Providence Canyon for 25 years and moved into a new home we built about seven years ago that is located only one mile farther south. During that time period I worked in banking for the first five years after college and have been self-employed for the last 28 years in real estate appraisal.

Our four oldest children are married and our youngest daughter is currently serving a mission in Ireland. We have eight wonderful grandchildren (our daughter was pregnant with number eight when the picture was taken). Our oldest son works with me in our appraisal business, our second oldest lives in Cedar City and works for a national food processing company, our married daughter is a homemaker and lives in Burley Idaho where her husband operates a large farm. Our youngest son recently began medical school in Wisconsin, and our youngest daughter has 5 months left on her mission.

We are true blue, USU Aggies. Four of our kids have graduated from USU and our missionary daughter has two semesters left.

I hope you have a great time at the reunion and wished we could be there. It is amazing how fast time has past. I guess we might even be getting a little old, at least that is what our grandkids think! Does it bother any of you guys that people in restaurants and retail stores when thanking us for our business often refer to us as “Sir”??
