Tom is also survived by a brother, Jack York of White Plains and was preceded in death by his siblings, Beulah, Bob, and Russell York. Tom co-founded York Oil Company with his dad and brothers, and founded Hill-Top Transport. He was a partner with his son, Gary, in Yoco, Inc. and his son, Jim, in Petroleum Transport Company. He was a member of White Plains Friends Meeting, Renfro Masonic Lodge #691 AF and AM, White Plains Fire Department, and a charter member of the White Plains Ruritan Club, having perfect attendance for 48 consecutive years. Tom's real passion was little league baseball. He coached the White Plains Braves for 18 years, where he won 80% of his games. He helped organize the Dobson Little League, where he served as Commissioner for 10 years. He was inducted into the inaugural class of the Surry County Sports Hall of Fame in 2006. In 2007, the White Plains Ruritan Club named its athletic facility the Tom B. York Athletic Fields. He was devoted to his church, family, friends, community and county. His other interests included Atlanta Braves Baseball, golf, and NASCAR. He loved attending his grandchildren's ballgames and golf matches, and his presence will be sorely missed.
