Thomas Old Man Wesley Atkin, 80, of Romance passed away Friday, March 16th at his home. He was born October 20, 1937 in Porterville, California to the late Frank and Ardis (Buffington) Atkin.
Thomas was a jack of all trades. He worked construction for 40 years and could build anything he put his mind to.
