There are times when we all wish we could stop time. But not Tom Bransford! His life’s passion was in making sure time kept ticking. For decades, his skill, steady hand and passion for timepieces saved many wonderful clocks from the scrap heap. Tom loved his career, and hoped this story would be viewed not just as a tribute to him, but to those who are dedicated to the vanishing skill of clock repair.

Just a note, Tom’s wife Ida had an interesting hobby of her own, a collection of Depression Glass, which filled her home and her heart till the end. Click here to watch her story.
