JOHNSTOWN – The May 12 death of Thomas Suydam has left a void in his community and changed the political landscape of what had been shaping up to be one of the most consequential city treasurer races in recent decades.
Thomas Suydam, a native of Gloversville, was a certified public accountant who had worked as a partner in the George J. Dorfman & Co. CPA firm, chief financial officer of plastic vial manufacturer Capitol Vial and had run a real estate agency in Mayfield on Route 30.
After learning his incumbent City Treasurer Michael Gifford was not running for re-election in November after serving in the position since the 1990s, Suydam filed a petition to run for the office as a Democrat.
