Tommy Lee Wilson (provided by Debbie Palmisano) Tommy Lee Wilson passed away on July 1 at the Gilcrest Hospice in Howard County. He was 81 years old. Tommy lived in Maryland his whole life. Tommy was the 1973 Mary- land State Appoloosa Reining Champion and was a lifetime member of the Maryland State Quarter Horse Association. In 1959, he began working for the U.S. Post-


al Service in Montgomery County and was a mail carrier for almost 40 years. Tommy had a 50-year friendship with Mike Palmisano and trained horses for


decades


out of Mike’s farm, Easy Does It, in New Windsor. He had a way with horses that the Palmisanos trusted. Tommy found help- ing educate horses and their owners very re- warding. He was best known for being able to teach any horse to walk on a trailer. Tommy was not


above learning either, as


he went to the Tommy Lee Wilson


Maryland Horse World Expo the first year Clinton Anderson was there. Tommy talked to Clinton for hours, bought his training videos and returned to a young black QH colt that was having issues and completed his training using methods he learned from Anderson. Tommy had the nickname the 7-11 Cow-


boy because he would start his mornings at 7-11 with a coffee and a paper. Sitting in his “famous” Black Dodge Truck, he would read the paper, drink his coffee and tell stories to anyone who stopped to listen. Tommy had the funniest stories and they were all true. He was one of a kind. He was a true friend.
