Our mentor at MOMS Upholstery. The original gangster of women doing “man’s work”. RIP Lila Tomek. You are the wind beneath our wings. ☺️

Our hearts break as we bid farewell to “Rosie the Riveter” Lila Tomek, who has passed at 101, a quiet giant of the Greatest Generation, a woman whose courage echoed far beyond the factory walls she once stood within. At just 19, while others clung to comfort, Lila stepped into history. She left behind her office job in Pawnee City, Nebraska, as her two younger brothers marched toward war, one to the battlefields of Europe, the other into the vast uncertainty of the Pacific. She could not carry a rifle, but she carried something just as powerful: resolve. And so she chose her battlefield, the roaring production lines of the Glenn L. Martin Bomber Plant near Omaha.🕊️🇺🇸

Amid thunderous machinery and the constant hum of urgency, her steady hands helped build the B-26 Marauder and the B-29 Superfortress, aircraft that bore the weight of hope for a world desperate for peace. Each rivet she fastened was an act of defiance against tyranny. Each shift she worked was a prayer for her brothers’ safe return.

As victory crept closer, Lila was entrusted with a mission cloaked in secrecy, preparing aircraft for a purpose history would later reveal. She asked no questions. She sought no praise. She simply served. Because true bravery does not always stand on the front lines. Sometimes, it stands at a workbench, sleeves rolled, heart steadfast.

When the war finally fell silent, she returned home not as someone seeking recognition, but as someone ready to build again, this time a family, a marriage with her beloved Rudy Tomek, and a lifetime of service to her community. Her strength was never loud. Her humility never wavered. Her legacy never needed applause.

Today, we do more than remember her, we honor her. A woman who helped forge victory with her bare hands. A sister who carried fear and faith in equal measure. A hero who proved that sacrifice wears many faces.

This was a fun project. This cushion is a backrest that will be fixed to the wall in a recently renovated boat house. Thanks Ralph for inspiring us with your creativity when it comes to design.

Teak chairs get a make over! More and more customers are wanting to re-furbish their quality pieces instead of purchasing new, lesser quality furniture.
