Oh, no - not Tom.

I called your cell and left a message but I could hardly talk.

This is horrible.

Thanks for sharing the sad news Laz, Eaker will truly be missed. As a side note, here's one of his last posts from only two days ago:

but we got a chance to know him well, and we are all better for it!

That is true and we are better people for it.

How true that is Eaker...............

As my grandfather once said, "If you should die tomorrow, you will only be remembered by your words and actions of today....."

Oh god yes. He loved his animals! Need to send up prayers for them too. Animals do grieve as well. Dear God...this is all just terrible. I can’t even wrap my mind around it....much else my soul. I just feel numb right now...spent. I can only imagine how their families feel. Makes my heart just ache for them all.

Have you ever heard the word, tact? Do you know what it means?

Seriously...

My voice is a small one in all this, so I’ll just add it to the choir with a song of prayer, hope and light shining through the darkness.
