Let me tell you about the amazing Thomas Tester, also known as Tommy! He was a loving father, husband, papa, and friend who started a fantastic tradition of dressing up as Santa Claus during Christmas in the early 80s. He and his wife Jamie had a blast dressing up, giving gifts and the tradition continued through their children and grandchildren. After Tommy's passing in 2016, his youngest grandchild convinced her father to carry on the tradition, which eventually led to the creation of Santa Claus in Vail, a family affair with Phil Tester and his Fiancé Shirley as Mr. and Ms. Claus. I can only imagine how proud Tommy would be of this wonderful legacy!
