Ok so I guess the cause of death is out there now. (I wanted TheMom to decide if she wanted it public), but too late now.

So here’s the deal: ONE MORE OF YOU DECIDES TO PULL YOUR OWN TRIGGER and we are PUTTING YOUR CORPSE DOWNRANGE at the next shoot.

I’m pissed about this, Tom Eaker. This was not what to do. You hurt a whole lot of people.

I still love ya, bro, but I’m pissed.

In many ways, many of us are guilty of the same thing. We just weren’t successful. At least I wasn’t.

We never get to know why, not completely.

We can only mourn, pray and hope.

When I was brand new here, I tangled with Mr. Eaker once.

ONCE.

From him I learned to learn from others, like Humble, mylife, 50mm, Darksheare, Laz and many, many others.

Sympathies and prayers to his friends and family.

Hate it when the great ones fall.

Tom was one of my bestest friends on Bookface, his brother too. Rest in Peace, Tom, I hope you’ve found some

Arms and prayers reaching to his family and friends at such a shocking and tragic loss. I have no words of comfort..nothing of that helps. Praying with all my heart. I only knew him through here and on FB..but a good guy. I’m grieving for all ofbyou.

Well, I guess you answered my question. Knowing how he left us now hurts even more.

I’m so distraught over this. Tom was a real buddy to me. Someone I connected with in real life. I can’t talk anymore.

Before I came across your posting here I went to Eakers home page. I didn't know him so wanted to see if I could learn something about him. I read how he was so saddened about the Texan that had just died a couple of days ago. Apparently they were pretty close. Anyway I seem to have a pretty good intuition and as I was reading I got the feeling Eakers death could be suicide.

So sorry for his family, children, grandchildren, and friends. People who commit suicide just don't think about the effects it has on other people.
