We had a beautiful celebration of Tom's life with family and friends at our cabin in Dorrington, CA, on August 10th. I've attached a few photos.

And the following are reminders about upcoming gatherings to celebrate Tom's life (same as prior posting):

Sunday, September 22, 3-5 pm, Palo Alto, CA (309 Fernando Ave) - The open house is from 3-5pm. We will be planting a tree with some of Tom's ashes at 4pm. There will be live guitar and mandolin music, which is something Tom always enjoyed immensely.

Saturday, October 5, 3 pm - ?, Columbus, OH  - We will be celebrating Tom's life with his childhood buddies in Columbus, Ohio, along with his son and family and extended family. Saturday morning, we will be visiting the cemetery where Tom's parents are buried and will be scattering some of Tom's ashes over their graves, per his wishes. Please email me if you need the address of the Saturday afternoon gathering (debparrish@gmail.com).

Saturday November 30, 4-6 pm, Todos Santos, Baja Mexico - At our home on La Cachora Road, we will be gathering to celebrate Tom's life, plant a tree and bury some of his ashes in our garden.  

At each of these upcoming gatherings, there will be a guest book to sign and/or to document any 1-word descriptions, short phrases, or stories of any length about what knowing Tom meant to you or what you will most remember about him. I envision this as a very special keepsake for Tom's children and grandchildren. If you would like to add something to the book but cannot attend any of these gatherings or simply prefer to type, please email your thoughts (debparrish@gmail.com) and I'll add them to the book.

Once again - I appreciate all the love and support.
