rest in peace major tool

[redred]

For those of you who are friends with the Major, I wanted to share some sad news that I received in a phone call from his beloved Mrs. Tool earlier this evening.

The Major lapsed into unconsciousness late Thursday night, New York USA time, and was rushed to Veterans Hospital for Surgical Services (if I have that correct) in Manhattan. He is still in coma and his vital signs are not very strong as of 8 o'clock this evening my time.

I got to know the Major much better over the last 6 months or so and he is one of the most wonderful men I have had the pleasure of calling a comrade in arms. I shall bow my head and pray for his recovery. The Major has always spoken highly of so many members of the old AS community and if any of you are still out there, please keep him in your hearts and minds. If you are a person of religious faith, please say a prayer for him tonight. If you are not, please raise a glass in his honour or give him a salute. He is a brave man who has fought many hardships and has always put his fellow man first. I think now would be a nice time for us to put him first in our thoughts.

If/when I have any updates to deliver, I shall.

Thanks for taking a moment to read this.

Cheers.

this has been taken from broken jam which for the mods that come here i hope that this one time is ok , if not please pm me as you will understand it isn't the thread for bitching and i will remove the thread.

As discussed in pm redred, i'm sure no-one will have a problem with us passing on this news over here.

I'll be honest, i didnt know MT very well at all but obviously a lot of folk here and at AS did and liked him greatly. A sincere best wishes MT

I will say a pray for the Major tonight. I got to know Major over at AS. I think he got a kick out a couple college boys like GF, golfer and I giving him some shit. And I got a kick out of him giving it back to me. He was truly from a different generation than me, and I really respected him for all he done.

Good journey, Major...hopefully towards recovery.

Get well soon Major. I hope he receives the treatment he requires.

Posting with him has always been fun. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.

Here I was just wondering where the Major went... I miss that ole fart ... I truly came to know him on the forums posting with Gf and Cactus, those were the days... He was of a different generation but had the spirit that encapsulates all generations. I hope he recovers to a state of being that is like his old self but if not i wish him farewell and Gods speed. Thank you for the memories and he is definitely in my mind....
Gods speed you ole fart :/

Good times boys Major is young at heart and that's where it counts. Hope he's alright and returns to us to bullshit around some more late nights.

I hope he pulls through and comes back twice as strong. Wishing all the best to him and his family.
