Girth & Mirth Indianapolis
A Social Club for big men and the men who admire them
Treasurer
Tom S. is our Treasurer.
He started his
current term as January 1, 2008. Tom joined the current G&M Indy
group in April 2005. He was one of the founding members of the
first Girth & Mirth Indianapolis Club (1988-91) serving as
Secretary & Treasurer and one of the charter members of the
Hoosier Bears (1993-94). Tom is single and lives on the far
Westside of Indy. Tom loves to sing & thanks to Frank & Mitch
has gotten heavily involved in karaoke. Tom has been employed as
office manager at Malone’s Catering for the past 15 years and is
now retired. In his early days he spent nearly 2 yrs as a disc
jockey, first at a small FM Station in Greencastle, IN & then 2½
yrs as the night DJ at country station WLBJ in Bowling Green,
KY. Tom used to be much larger than his current 295#. Less than
4 years ago he weighed in at about 435# before undergoing
Bariatric surgery at St. Vincent’s Carmel Hospital. He complains
of resembling one of those “Shar Pei” dogs because of many
wrinkles due to the loss, but feels better than he did at 35.
Tom was born in Indianapolis and has lived in this area his
whole life except during his radio days. Tom has many pastimes &
hobbies besides Karaoke including collecting & studying atlases,
maps & travel lit from all over the world; reading & looking at
books & magazines on subjects such as outer space, and
architecture; listening to music (he has quite
a CD and vinyl collection);
watching TV- DVDs & video; collecting bolos
(string ties) and die-cast metal
cars. His vast music collection
includes thousands of artists and many
types of music, but he remains a most
loyal fan of singer Brenda Lee who
he took notice of back in 1965 at age
10. Tom owns all of her recordings
and includes some of her songs in
his Karaoke repertoire. If you want to
