I link to Tom's blog a lot

and I go to his site daily. I'd seen that other than the Greenwood business, he's been quiet for some time. Tom is North MS Commentor. When I had a chance to catch up, I saw his post announcing that his father had died.

He has a new post up now.

Here’s a short documentary my daughter Sarah Simonson  did for a Southern Studies class about Phil Stone (my dad’s first law partner) and William Faulkner that includes a section of my father talking about Stone and Faulkner.   (I’m in there, too).   I’m so glad this is on video.

In the scheme of things, the death of your father is inevitable.
