We are saddened to share the passing of Tom Hail. Tom, along with his wife Dee, who continues to teach at VRA today, were our original CCW and fi****ms instructors when we first opened our doors in 2006.
For nearly 20 years, Tom was an important part of the VRA family. He helped us in countless ways over the years, and we will always be grateful for his friendship, support, and commitment to VRA and our community.
While we are deeply saddened by his passing, we are also thankful for the many years, memories, and experiences we were fortunate enough to share with him. Tom will be greatly missed, but his impact on VRA and the many people he helped along the way will not be forgotten.
Our thoughts, love, and support are with Dee and the entire Hail family during this difficult time.
