WORDS WILL NEVER SUM UP THE GRADITUDE I FEEL FOR THE DEAR FRIENDS WHO PUT THIS OUTSTANDING EVENT AND TRIBUTE NIGHT TOGATHER FOR THOMAS. THE ENTIRE DAY WAS MORE THAN I COULD HAVE EVER IMAGINED. SINCE JANUARY 2ND MY SON’S FRIENDS HAVE SURROUNDED MY FAMILY WITH SUCH A STRONG BRIGHT LIGHT FILLED WITH LOVE AND RESPECT THAT I CANT EVEN BEGIN TO PUT IT ALL TO WORDS WITHOUT ALL OF YOU I KNOW I WOULD HAVE BEEN SO LOST. ALL OF YOU MEAN SO MUCH TO ME THAT I COULD NEVER BEGIN TO REPAY ALL OF YOU, NOT EVEN WITH A LIFE TIME SUPPLY OF MEATBALLS AND PASTA. SATURDAY NIGHT WAS SIMPLY MAGICAL AND TRULY A DAY FILLED WITH MOMENTS OF TOM. NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT THE DAY IT WAS SUCH AN EXPRESSION OF DEEP ROOTED LOVE AND RESPECT FOR MY SON THAT JUST THINKING ABOUT IT MAKES ME CRY. I AM ACTUALLY SHOCKED THAT IT DID NOT SNOW A FOOT OR TWO THAT NIGHT AS A SIGN THAT HE WAS SHREDDING THE CLOUDS AS HE DANCED ALONG WITH ALL OF YOU. PERHAPS HE JUST SAT THERE IN AWE OF ALL OF YOU AND THE CONTINUED LOVE FOR HIM I KNOW THOMAS WOULD HAVE BEEN DELIGHTED AND MAYBE EVEN A BIT OVERWHELMED WITH IT ALL, ESPECIALLY SINCE HE WAS THE ONE WHO ALWAYS THE LEADER THE PLANNER THE TALL MAN BEHIND THE MIC MAKING IT ALL HAPPEN. HE WOULD HAVE BEEN SO PROUD KNOWING SO MANY GROUPS CAME TOGATHER TO FORM” TEAM PLAINWHITE TOM” AND AS A TEAMTHEY DID WHATEVER IT TOOK TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. HE WOULD HAVE BEEN SO TOUCHED AND SO GRATEFUL THAT THE COMMUNITY THAT HE LOVED ADORED AND RESPECTED SO MUCH SHOWED UP IN BIG NUMBERS TO REPRESENT, BATTLE TO THE END AND BE THERE FOR ONE ANOTHER. I AM SURE HE IS SOMEPLACE WRITING IN A JOURNAL OF HOW IMPRESSED THAT SO MANY STEPPED UP TO LEAD, FOLLOW, ORGANIZE, DONATE, CREATE, HEAL BUT MOST OF ALL THAT EVERYONE IN THAT ROOM WAS THERE TO LOVE AND BE LOVED. TALK ABOUT A VIBE OF NICENESS, THE SPACE WAS LITERALLY A GLOW WITH MUTAL RESPECT, AND LOVE. THAT WAS THE TRUEST GIFT TO HIM, IN HONOR OF HIM, THE MUSIC, DANCING AND ALL OF THE OTHER THINGS THAT DAY WERE JUST THE SWEET ICING ON THE MOST INCREADIBLE TASTY PLAINWHITE CUPCAKE OF LIFE. SATURDAY, WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE CLOWN IN HIM TO CRY, THE POET IN HIM TO CREATE, THE DANCER IN HIM TO CELEBRATE ALONG SIDE WITH MOST TALENTED INDIVIDUALS TO BATTLE AND MOST IMPORTANTLY THE KIND SOUL THAT HE WAS TO BE FOREVER THANKFUL FOR THE PEOPLE HE CHOSE TO CALL HIS FRIENDS. THE MAN COULD NOT HAVE PICKED BETTER PEOPLE. YOU ARE ALL TOP NOTCH NO DOUBT. I HAVE OFTEN SAID WITH HIS PASSING I LOST 1 CHILD BUT I GAINED HUNDREDS IN HIS PLACE, I AM REMINDED OF IT EVERYDAY OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS. THE LOVE AND DEEP CARNG THAT HAS BEEN FOCUSED ON HIS FAMILY IS SOMETHING THAT MOVIES SOULD BE WRITTEN ABOUT. ( IF SO, PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT MERYL STREEP IS CASTED AS PLAINWHITE MOM, JUST SAYING ;) I REALLY THINK THOMAS WENT THROUGH LIFE PICKING THE BEST SOULS TO CALL HIS FRIENDS KNOWING THAT SOME DAY YOU WOULD ALL BE LEFT TO CONTINUE ON IN WITH HIS VISION AND TO HELP HIS FAMILY . TO ALL THAT HELPED BIG OR SMALL TO MAKE NO EXCUSES ~ HAPPEN I SEND YOU LOVE AND A VERY GRATEFUL HEARTFILLED THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK ON THIS EVENT A SPECIAL THANKS GOES OUT TO THE “CORE” TEAM AND ALL OF THEIR HELPERS YOU ALL REALLY WORKED SO HARD TO MAKE THIS A TRUE EXPRESION OF LOVE AND GRADITUDE IN HIS HONOR . I PROMISE TO MAKE YOU DINNER AS OFTEN AS YOU WANT, I WILL NEVER REPAY YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE DONE SINCE TOM LEFT US. I AM TRULY BLESSED TO HAVE EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU TALENTED LOVING CRAZY BEAT SEEKING SOULS IN MY WORLD. THANK YOU THANK YOU AND BLESS YOU ALL PEACE, LOVE & MUCH HAPPINESS TO ALL OF YOU PLAINWHITE MOM , AND PAPA D
