    Our friend and fellow adjuster, Tom Swanson, passed away this morning near Hartford, Connecticut, while on assignment.  Tom has work for Crawford & Company many years.  I had the pleasure of working with Tom over the last seven years.  He was one of the hardest working adjusters I have ever known with the biggest "can do" attitude.

    I do not have any further information at this time but will post when available.

    My heartfelt condolences to Tom's wife and family.

    Rest in peace,

    John Pendergrass

    "In sorrow, we mourn those lost. In gratitude, we embrace those around us. In sympathy, we reach out to those who grieve."

    My thoughts and prayers are with Tom's family and friends. I have heard many great comments about Tom from adjusters and clients. He will be missed.

    For those of you who knew Tom, I’m sure you’d agree that he was not just one of the best, but someone who was extremely selfless and went out of his way to help others … both at the professional and personal level. Whenever Tom was aware that someone was in need, he was always there.

    Tom, who was 60, started with Crawford & Company Catastrophe Services in November 2000 as an auto adjuster.  Through the years, he worked hard to become a property adjuster and was part of our CAT Core Team. He was in New Orleans to adjust claims after Hurricane Katrina and also recently worked on catastrophes in New Zealand and Australia. He loved nature, working outside, antique cars and going to dinner with his family.

    For the past few years, Tom had become one of the most sought-out adjusters in CAT due to the quality of his work and his positive attitude towards others. His death is a huge loss for our organization and those who knew him personally. This is a very difficult time for his family and for all of us who worked with him.

     Visitation will be held this Thursday, November 17, from 2 p.m. until 9 p.m. at the Hack Funeral Home in Beecher, Illinois. Funeral services will be held Friday at 10 a.m. at Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church in Cedar Lake, Indiana.  Interment will be at Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery.

    Tom Swanson was a very close friend and I’m at a lose of words of how much I will miss his friendship. I can say that I am blessed in one way and that is that I was able to see him and have supper at his table with his family just two weeks ago. The Swanson family is in my thoughts and prayers.   Lance Binner
