Unfortunately, we had another call from her a few hours ago (Tuesday evening), and Tom is now officially gone. He had been out partying, was feeling on top of the world, and probably was never really aware of pain. He'd called Kat earlier in the night and invited her to join him. She said they were trying to keep him sedated, but he kept looking around, particularly looking at her. There were constantly friends in his hospital room, lots of folks who love him. He will be sorely missed. We should do something at Kerrville. - - Linda S. ************* HELP! owner-believers@smoe.org Send mail to believers@smoe.org Susan's CD's are available on your desktop at World Cafe CDs http://worldcafecds.com ------------------------------ End of believers-digest V10 #29 ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------- -------------------------- This has been a posting from the Susan Werner believers-digest To unsubscribe send mail to Majordomo@smoe.org with "unsubscribe believers-digest" in the body of the message
