In Memoriam

On behalf of the entire Thomas family, I'd like to thank the Britton-Summers Funeral Home and VFW Post 9013 for their outstanding service and support with Wally's funeral. It was truly a beautiful and honorable memorial to my father, and I do appreciate it.

I'd also like to thank New Life Community Church of Belton, MO, for hosting the memorial service.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the V.F.W. Memorial Day Parade Fund, 9A Milk Street, Westborough, MA 01581

Evening update

Well, Wally is on a 6 hour watch. The nurse will be back at 2 am to check on his status again. He has only opened his eyes a few times today. We give him pain meds every hour to help with the pain. Lots of people coming and going helping out. Tonight a couple of our neighbors will be taking turns sitting up with Wally. We are doing everything we can to make him comfortable. Bill will fly in at 10 am tomorrow morning. Butch is unable to travel because of his health. The kids had off school today, so the house has been a buzz. They have all come down at various times to give Grandpa the "thumbs up". Plans are in the works for a funeral in Mass and a memorial here in Missouri. Wally wanted to be buried next to his brother in Mass.
