LAFOLLETTE, TN (WLAF)- War hero. Leader. A man’s man. The late Tommy Clyde Stiner was all that and more. And he’s sorely missed.

However, Stiner’s legacy lives. The local airport bears his name, The Colonel Tommy C. Stiner Airfield, and the annual Rotary Club’s golf tournament is dedicated in his memory; Tommy C. Stiner Memorial Golf Outing.

Stiner’s name is never very far from lots of folks thoughts especially when the time of year rolls around for the annual Rotary Club’s golf tournament that’s named for him.
