Eric and Tina Thomson, owners of Tedesco’s Italian Fresh, moved to Sequim in 2016. They fell in love with the area after they visited Tina’s son, Dustin Miller, who is the restaurant’s bar manager. Eric serves on the Sequim-Dungeness Valley Chamber of Commerce’s board of directors, and he and his family support several local causes. (Monica Berkseth/Olympic Peninsula News Group)
