Tom Tyne retiring after longtime connection to Grandview Heights Schools
He attended school from kindergarten until he graduated from Grandview Heights High School in 1972.
After a seven-year tour of duty in the U.S. Army, Tyne returned to his hometown and established his own carpet-cleaning business.
For about 21 years, Tom Tyne Carpet and Upholstery Cleaners provided carpet-cleaning services to the district.
Then in 2000, Tyne joined the district full time as a member of the facilities staff.
His years in Grandview have been sweet, Tyne, 67, said.
But for Tyne, that time is drawing to a close.
He will retire Feb. 28 and move with his wife, Debbie, to West Virginia. Debbie, like Tom, attended Grandview schools from kindergarten through graduation.
