Tolbert will maintain a position at the museum upon her retirement where she will principally focus on archiving of the museum’s collections and programming and continuing restoration of the Thomas-Foreman Historical home (owned and operated by the museum). “Sue has left a strong and lasting legacy for the museum,” said Three Rivers Museum Vice-Chairman and former Chairman, Roger Bell. “She has been instrumental in guiding the museum’s efforts in so many areas and we are very excited that she will continue to be part of our museum.” The Three Rivers Museum exists to preserve and present the heritage of Muskogee and the surrounding area.
