Dearest Ones that I love. I send all my condolences to all of you. It is a very sad day and yet a peaceful day that has released Tom's spirit into the next world. My heart is full of emotion and love, and I feel your pain and heartache. May the love and peace of God rest on your lives and bring you joy as we all celebrate the life of a giant. He will be with us always!

Susan, I have been following your family journey with your Dad. I just read the latest and I offer my condolences. I sense a sign of relief that the battle is over and peace replaces the many struggles that everyone has encountered. What an awesome family you have. The support and love you share has been an incredible testimony of what was evidently taught and cherished by those who are now in your care. Thank you for sharing your journey. Cindy

Thomas Marion Tate was a pillar of his family, the idol of my daughter, a wonderful father and grandfather who would do anything to help his children. The world is a sadder place with his loss. It's at times like this that we question why the good have to die. We shed tears over his loss, but will always remember his loving kindness to his family and loved ones. We will plant trees in Israel in his honor and memory.

Bye, David!

David left for Korea this morning and I miss him already. He won't be gone that long, the job contract is just through May with a possible extension til December.

He's flying out of my Mom Radar, and I won't be able to track him any longer, at least not as easily, ha! *sigh* Seems we can't wait for our kids to grow up and then when they do, it's WHAMMO we miss them so much.

Update on DadTate

June Tate, David Whetstone, Rickey Gans, Dave Tate, and Susan Walker have already sent in their money to help make this happen. Robin Dion and Tommy Tate have also pledged to donate. God bless you all, it means so much to Dad to have ALL his children here as he enters into this ordeal. Looks like DadTate will go into Mesa General Hospital on March 24 for the open heart surgery. He will be in intensive care after the operation for about a week, then probably another week or two on the telemetry ward, and then he will be able to go home. There is a 15% chance he may not survive the surgery, so we didn't schedule the surgery till the 24th so all the kids could arrange to be here. (That's why we took up the collection as mentioned above to bring Sherry over from Israel.) I know 15% sounds like a high risk, but there is a 40% chance he won't survive more than a couple of m...
