Captain Tom Francis RIP
 
Just got notice this morning that Tom Slipped peacefully from this life at 5:53am. No more Kypus, no more Lung cancer. Farewell buddy. Be at peace

Oh, sorry to read that. He was a smart guy, and an original thinker. :(

He always had some good stuff to say, especially with some of his FB stuff. I'll
miss him.

That's really sad news. Hadn't heard from him for years and didn't know
he was ill.

Tom was a great guy. I met him a couple of times when he visited us
several years ago, at our house and at the
guitar shop.

RIP

Yes indeed. Perhaps you could pass this sad information onto your
Scotia buddy.

Sad to hear. He didn't live far from me, and we met and talked a couple of times, but we just lost track after that. Good guy.

Lol! I remember the trick you two pulled on me when you were setting up the guitar shop. But I also remember the truck we pulled back in him too! Lol!

Yes, great guy for sure. We met up with him and his wife for dinner
in Rhode Island on our first trip north with the Grand Banks. Tom's
wife was very taken with the boat. He was a long time amateur radio
operator (HAM, W1TEF), and could copy morse code in his head at
amazing speeds.

Yes he was very quick on the key! Amazing how many distance contests he won using such low wattages

Thanks Harry for passing on the bad news. Tom was a great guy. Only one in the group that I actually met face to face. I'd like to offer my condolences to his family and friends.

I think back to all the squabbles we had with his little Connecticut buddy yet Tom always remained neutral...which I was glad for when we met in that isolated gravel turn around/parking area halfway along route 9 in the wilds of Maine.

Wonder if Scott Ingersol is aware of the sad news?
