Tom
Bates got married and moved up to northern Minnesota and tried to live off
the land. When that didn’t work, he got a job in the logging
business and his wife got a job too. They had a couple of kids
an life got pretty good for them. He then studied to
be a missionary. When he had completed his missionary
training He announced
he was selling all his property, and him and his wife were moving to
a place in Bloomington for a final year of
training before going out on the mission. He has since
been out of touch. Kind of a mystery.
