Yes great work by all. I am very impressed by everyones generosity.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intentions of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather to slide in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming....WOW WHAT A RIDE!!

The set looks beautiful guys, when we started this I new it would be good but this has exceeded my expectations. I also wish I could be there at the presentation.
I only knew Tom briefly but it was obvious to me that he was a kind and gentle man and faced his situation with courage and not despair.

Tom may you rest in peace and know that you are not forgotten as you will on in the memories of all the people that you have touched :'(

 Yea, It does look great and I hope Patrick likes it. I'm sure he will, he is one, good, young man. I'll miss Tom, and was hopeing we'd get one more hunting trip with all of us together.

It is such a beautifully inspired token of care and kindness to respect a man from the primitive archery family which was more than just a friend the way you have done.....

This coming Sunday, December 20th, we will have a cookout at Alan Brown's house in Hendersonville, NC to present the Tom B Memorial Bow set to Tom's son Patrick. Alan called last evening and said he had asked Patrick over on Sunday for a cookout and to shoot a few arrows. Patrick knows nothing about the set so this should be a great surprise.  8)  I'll take pics and share with all. Hopefully the "Hillbilly" family can make it over too.

Eddie, I wish you could too. I'll be sure Patrick knows we are all thinking about him and that we are there if he need us.
