I would like to reach out and say thank you to each and every one of you who has posted on this thread, as well as those who have silently read along - any and all attention can be so important when loved ones are missing! Some of you have gone to tremendous effort and obviously invested lots of your time in this search for Tommy; please know that it is much appreciated.
:tyou:
My interest in this case is personal: one of my cousins is married to Tommy's brother Clint. Though we are (hopefully obviously) not related by blood, I consider Clint a "cousin" and Tommy and the rest of them family too - that is the kind of family people we are on both sides of the tree. I want to do anything I can to help find Tommy, and seeing this much legwork done here really warms my heart.
I will try to answer any questions I can to the best of my knowledge, and respectfully ask the family for more information when warranted. Clint and I spoke earlier this evening on the phone. In
post 24 OkieGranny so helpfully transcribed an interview with Clint from BlogTalk Radio about Tommy's disappearance. Having that transcription is very useful, because unfortunately it contains virtually all the information known by the family about this case.
I apologize: I'm not entirely clear regarding the rules of this forum and what I am allowed to post here in regards to things that can not be sourced in MSM. If permitted, I can and will happily clarify the very few things that are mysterious about this case, but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post on the basis of "Tommy's brother says <x>" if it hasn't been reported in MSM. Would someone more experienced in the forum mind clarifying?
Again, thank you from the bottom of my/our hearts!
