Fannon, Thomas “TJ” (1930-2013)

Induction Year: 2009

Native Alexandrian TJ Fannon and his family have given major support to Inova Alexandria Hospital, the Alexandria Symphony, the foster care organization Alexandria’s Child, Senior Services of Alexandria, Bishop Ireton High School, St. Mary’s Academy, Alexandria youth baseball (continuous team sponsorship since inception, plus other support) and the Rotary Club of Alexandria. A private man, Mr. Fannon is reticent about receiving recognition and engages in many of his philanthropic acts without great fanfare. The Fannon family business, which has served Alexandrians for over 120 years, reflects his principles of honesty and fair dealing.
