Thomas Marion's heart may have been with the music he was making, but the guitarist's mind was focused solely on his job.

He told his boss at Wal-Mart about his band only a couple of times, and that he had gone a few times to shows at The Station in West Warwick. He didn't share many details, however.

"It didn't matter what he had on his plate for the day. He did whatever he had to do," Kendra Goodwin, an assistant manager at the Raynham, Mass. store, told The Providence Journal.

Marion, 27, of Westport, Mass., had been with Wal-Mart for six years and had become a furniture department manager.

He was a 1994 graduate of Diman Regional Vocational Technical School, where he had specialized in furniture and cabinet making.

A teacher, Ronald Silvia Jr., remembered Marion as a quiet teenager with a slight frame and bushy hair.

"He was a good kid," Silvia said. "Never any trouble."
