Tommy,



Brother Bazoom, I was good to see you last year at Doris' Party. None of use knew that would be the last meeting of the Brother Five No 2. I had always hoped for a comeback of the group (smile).



You have fought the good fight. We will miss you. Rest now. We will sing when we meet again.
