Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there. I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow; I  am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain; I am the gentle autumn's rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush. I am the swift uplifting rush,

of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft star that shines at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there. I did not die.

It is with deepest regret that we announce

On July 16, 2003

Tommy L

lost his battle with Evans Syndrome.

January 30,1991 - July 16,2003

God took Tommy and made him an angel,

he will be missed by many,

and remembered by all.

On behalf of Tommy's family we would like to express our thanks for everyone's prayers, support, financial contributions, and time given to assist them through the last three years.

Knowing Tommy, he would want us all to continue helping one another and live life to the fullest. As of this time, we are no longer holding benefits for TommyL; however, the Core team is considering holding a yearly dance in honor of Tommy. All proceeds will go to COTA and their never ending fight to assist families with organ transplants.

If you would like to financially assist COTA and ensure that other children will receive help, contact them directly by going to www.cota.org. We have recently had to take the guest book offline. Thank you for everything you have done in Tommy's name.

God bless everyone that has helped in this endeavor,

                                                                    Sincerely,

COTA for TommyL, Core Team
