The Last Mission by Tom Vancel

Tom Vancel hails from Tennessee, where he attended public schools and played baseball. After serving with the army for four years in peacetime Europe, he returned to college to study chemistry, dentistry and pharmacy. He pursued a career in pharmacy for 39 years before retiring.

Forty-one years ago, Tom married Glenda, who is still at his side. They have a son and daughter, both of whom teach, the daughter in kindergarten and the son in college.

He has published and edited a weekly newspaper for five years, served as a part time missionary to Central America, coached college soccer, and now does dentistry in third world countries on an intermittent basis.

Tom is a licensed pilot, a grandpa, speaks in churches regularly, and belongs to the Tallahassee Writer’s Association and The Silver Scribes. ABC Tales has published six of Tom’s super short stories. Seek and Purpose  have also carried Tom’s articles.
