Tom had said he'd be at the ARA show and I was wondering why we hadn't heard from him in recent weeks. My last email exchange with Tom said he was going on a cruise.
Didn't expect this news at all.
Let's hope for a good outcome and a speedy recovery.

I recently spoke with Tom after he got home. As you'd hope, he sounded great and ready to tackle what ever it takes to overcome still another obstacle. He was very apreciative of the concern & prayer of forum members.
Hopefully,Tom will soon give us a report.

To: ALL
You all are just wonderful and I can't thank you enough. Especially with your prayers and concern. I am in God's hands and great wife's Carols.
I am proud to be part of this industry and am so fortunate to have been here "forever".
engraving etc. could be no nicer and as a matter of fact, I linked reptom.com to this great room.
Fortunately the brain cancer surgery removed most of the cancer and I'll be having other treatments. We'll just keep praying.
I can't begin mentioning names as I don't ever wish to omit anyone....but the leaders and active folk hear are really great and I really love all of the Brewer Family.
Lots of love,
Tom Franklin

Tom,
We're always looking for one more QUALITY PERSON to become a forum member.
Although we've never met, I can say you've filled that bill very admirably.
Thank you and best of luck with your recovery.

Best of luck and speedy and complete recovery.
I know first hand what you and your family are going through.
Our youngest daughter had surgery when she was 6.
She is 21 now and attending university.
All we can do is pray and hope for you and yor family.
God bless.

Tom, I don't know you but I hope someday to have as many friends to wish me well as you have.
Over in the Disney forum we give out pixie dust to those who need it. I have been given more than my share and it has always worked for my tired old body and mind. I have a brain tumor that hasn't changed for many years. Did the pixie dust help? I choose to believe it did.
So I am sending lots of it to you. All you have to do is believe.
Good luck.
Bill
