About the Innkeepers...
Tom and Kathryn White are new to Hanover, but already feel it's a great place to call home. They purchased the inn April 26, 2000, moving from St. Louis, Missouri.
Tom was born in Nebraska, raised in Springfield, Missouri, graduated from the University of Kansas, and is a registered professional engineer (mechanical). His first job out of college was with York International in York, PA, so he's not entirely new to the region. After 13 years in York, he moved to St. Louis to work with Monsanto Company, where he spent more than 20 years. His two great passions are photography and singing, which he did for several years with the York Symphony Chorus and Chamber Music Group.
It was Kathryn's dream to own an inn for 20 years! She was born in Lawrence, KS, and as the daughter of a Presbyterian minister moved from Kansas to Kentucky, Missouri, New York, and back to Missouri for most of her formative years. After undergraduate and graduate school at Syracuse University, she started out in city management before assuming a marketing position with Sverdrup Corporation. She spent 20 years in marketing and advertising, and contributed numerous hours with the volunteer boards of Opera Theatre Saint Louis, Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra, Saint Louis Art Fair, and Circus Flora, to name a few. In addition to cooking, Kathryn loves to needlepoint and read.
Tom and Kathryn live in the carriage house out back. Daughter Allison raises and trains shelties and golden retrievers. Daughter Anne and Steve are the parents of Victoria and Andrew, our grandchildren. Son Tommy and Cindy are the parents of Nathalie and Margaret, our two youngest grandchild. All call St. Louis home.
