Tom Stafford
President
Tom Stafford is a retired senior noncommissioned officer who served on active duty in the Mississippi Army National Guard for 24 years. He received multiple state and federal awards for his service. He has been a deacon at First Baptist Church in Clinton for eight years and serves as Troop Committee Chair for his son’s Boy Scout troop. Tom and his wife, Beverly, have three children: Rebecca, Bradley and Kara.
Tom planned to serve his country for 30 years, but his career was shortened by injuries from a traumatic fall. He still has multiple limitations but has been able to adapt and serve his church and community in many different ways.
We’re proud to be a group of world changers.
