“It is with deep sadness that I learned of the passing of former Floyd County Surveyor Tom Boofter, Sr. Tom spent most of his career in service to our community as a member of the Army Reserve and as our Floyd County Surveyor for 21 years. He was a member of countless civic organizations and a charter member of the Floyd County Democrat Men’s Club. Our party extends our heartfelt sympathy to his wife, Sandy, his children and grandchildren, as well as his extended family and friends during this time.
