Thomas Henry Seitzinger, 79, passed away on May 3, 2021, after a brief illness.

Tom was born in Bloomfield New Mexico on September 24, 1941, to George and Inez Seitzinger. L CPL Seitzinger proudly served in the United States Marine Corps from 1958 to 1964.

Tom had a passion for cars and enjoyed drag racing. He began his family and made many great memories camping, fishing, and boating. Harley rides were also a favorite pastime. Tom was a member of the Silver Sage Sams Chapter of Nevada Good Sams visiting many campgrounds around Nevada and was a strong competitor in a game of horseshoes. He was also a member of the Oasis Desert Riders exploring Nevada back roads with his side-by-side.

Tom is survived by his wife of 52 years, Carol, his daughters Kirsten (Charlie) Kirkness and Jessica (Nick) Fain, and his grandchildren Josslyn Kirkness, Talon, and Dalton Fain.

Services will be held on Thursday, May 20, 2021, at noon at the Northern Nevada Veterans Memorial Cemetery, 14 Veterans Way in Fernley, Nevada. A Celebration of Life will immediately follow at the Fraternal Order of Eagles Hall, 7977 Reno Hwy. in Fallon, Nevada.

I was a very good friend of Tom and knew him in the marines and in Bakersfield before moving to Fallon. He was discharged in 1962 not 1964. I was the one who introduced him to drag racing in Bakersfield. He was a great guy.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
