About 3:15 am Wed morning Washington State time May 6th 2020, Tom went home to be with the Lord! He is to be envied. He opted to discontinue nutrition. Apparently he went quietly in his sleep! Though he will be missed, it won't be long before we are again all reunited! His friend, brother and fellow sojourner! Tender Reed He is probably already directing angels on how to set place settings for our dinner table! TR Thank you for the update. I don’t blame him for opting out of the feeding tube ... I knew of a lady in my former church who had throat cancer and she was in horrific pain 24/7. She was a believer also so she is in a much better place! I envy both Tom and her. How glorious it must have been to transition over to the other side to sweet Beulah Land! No more worries or cares of this world and being with Jesus and seeing others that you know. Being in peace and rest. I betcha he already had some fruit from the Tree of Life! 😉 I’m sure he met Lisa Leenie and now he can help her out getting the RITA Reunion party ready. :whistle: His passing has really not settled in for me yet. That will take some time! Hopefully we shall all soon follow! I was blessed personally to have his fellowship and friendship! His contributions to RITA and RITAN were a labor of love for our family here! I'm sure during his time, he had ruffled a few feathers. TR I sat with him as he slept, and released him to go be with the Lord! Though he went quicker than most expected. His joy is now complete and clothed in fullness. TR
