Thomas "Tom" John Herold

Herold, Thomas J (Tom)

Age 77, of Woodbury, MN

It is with great sadness that we announce Tom died peacefully on Feb 11 surrounded by his family. Tom grew up in St. Paul attending Cretin HS where he was on the hall of fame wrestling team. He received his BS from the U of M and served in the Army for 4 years. He then had a long career as a chemical engineer. He enjoyed running marathons and kayaking up north. In retirement he enjoyed being with family and friends, home improvement projects, the great outdoors especially hunting, woodworking, crossword puzzles, and spending time at the cabin. He will be deeply missed but not forgotten.

Tom is survived by his wife Barbara, children Susan Kohn (Richard), Greg, Ashley (Joe Furnari), and grandchildren Maddie Jeska (Jake), Evie Kohn and Zander Furnari and brother Dick (Kathy). Preceded in death by his parents (George and Louise Herold) and sisters (Betty Herold and Ann Jungbauer).
