LaTourette bill honoring Stow Marine becomes Law

U.S. Rep. Steven C. LaTourette (R-Bainbridge Township) said President Obama has signed legislation to posthumously name the Stow Post Office after Marine Cpl. Joseph Tomci of Stow, who was killed August 2, 2006, by a roadside bomb in Iraq.

 LaTourette’s bill, H.R. 3788, was approved in November by a vote of 415-1. The Senate passed the bill without a recorded vote just before Christmas, and the White House announced the signing late Friday. 

 Tomci, a graduate of Stow-Munroe Falls High School, was on his second tour of duty in Iraq when he was killed while conducting combat operations in Al Anbar province.  He was just 21.  He was assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, II Marine Expeditionary Force, Camp Lejeune, N.C.

 The law will name the post office at 3900 Darrow Road in Stow as the “Corporal Joseph A. Tomci Post Office Building.”  LaTourette said Tomci is deserving of this recognition and is beloved in Stow.

 “I’m happy we were able to do this for Cpl. Tomci, his family and friends,” LaTourette said.  “I look forward to working with the family, the postal service and the Stow officials to do a formal dedication.”
