Unhappy Time to say Good-bye

Many of us are of the age that have had to say good-bye to friends and loved ones.

Well, we are face with having to do it again. Our friend Tom may have but a few days left. Tom's wife has invited, any of us that might want to see him, to visit him.

He is in room 5331 at the Marin General Hospital

http://www.maringeneral.sutterhealth.org/

I just talked to the family this evening.
The family knows we are standing by. More to say later.

If you need more details, please e-mail me.

Sadly,
Terry

Unhappy A visit with Tom

I sat with Tom today. I was quiet in his sunny room. I put on the wall an enlarged photo of him driving at the last Hooked on Driving day. I put a note on it from the folks at HOD and the BACC.

Regards Terry

Terry,

Would it be appropriate to visit Tom this afternoon ?

This is a tragedy for all of us and for his family ; a good , ethical, loving family man of high principle and social value.



Sad beyond measure,

Tony R.

Unhappy Tom is gone

He passed yesterday afternoon. His wife called this afternoon.
She was with him.

I asked her how we might participate at the memorial service on wed. the 19th.

Did she want solemn pallbearers or burn outs in the street out side the service.... she said we should ourselves. -- He wouldn't want solemn...

I will get the particulars tomorrow from her and post them here.
I'm at the track today and tomorrow and cell service is poor, I might call someone with the facts to post so that you can make plans.


More later,
Terry

Default Service this Wednesday

I know that a few of us are going on Wednesday. If anyone wants to do something special. Lets Talk.

Thanks Randy for getting the Date right and letting us know that location, etc.

I'm expecting to hear from the family soon as to anything special we need from us.

Terry
