SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Thomas G. Farmer, the co-owner of Fins & Tails Gourmet Seafood Store in Syracuse, died on New Year’s Day.
Farmer, 69, of Syracuse, operated the store with his wife Margaret for more than 32 years, according to his obituary. When the store on Erie Boulevard East closed in September, a sign was posted in the window “the dream is over.”
When the store marked its 25th anniversary, Farmer talked with Syracuse.com | The Post-Standard about starting the store, fish and how the seafood market had changed in Central New York. He also shared a couple of recipes.
According to his obituary, Farmer was born in Clinton and was a graduate of Watertown High School and Monmouth College. He worked for Dixon Fisheries’ in Peoria, IL for 10 years, then moved to Syracuse and opened the store.
He also was a lead guitar player in many area bands and once, while he was in college, opened for REO Speedwagon, his obituary said.
