North American Fruit Explorers mailing list at ibiblio

["Doreen Howard" <gardendiva@charter.net>]

I passed along the posts from people on this list about Tom to his wife 
Jill.  She was very touched by Charles Paradise's and felt that he 
eloquently described what Tom tried to do in fruit exploring.

I suggest that the post be printed in the next Pomona, as many of those who 
knew Tom in Nafex don't subscribe to this list.

There will be memorial service for Tom on Sunday at 1 p.m. at the Liberty 
Church in Jacksonville, IL, if any of you live in the area.  It will be an 
opportunity to say a few words and enjoy the fellowship of Tom's many 
friends.  Tom's wishes were that no flowers be sent.  I'm sure Jill would 
appreciate a card, though.
