Got no chance to listen to it so far.
He actually sang "hit by a truck"?!
Thanks Frederica for your good ear on that one...

I have sent one thousand EUR to Sabine, she will receive it in 2 or 3 days.
We will close the donation at the end of the week, and i will send her the remaining next week.
Re:For Thomas, with a little help from my friends 15 Years, 11 Months ago
Hi alls, i recently had learned about Thomas 's passing away. i met Thomas via internet in 2004 while i was surfing bobdylan.de From this time on, we started to exchange emails , mails, postcards, pictures... i remember i always said to him why he used to write so few lines while i used to write such a long texts. He mantained me informed about Bobs tour which he used to follow as a soldier while here, in Lima Peru i still were dreaming the day i could have the chance to see Bob live. I did it on march 15 2008 Buenos Aires, and from this time on Thomas and me didnt write. Last week remember this, i wrote some lines asking about news.. but never would answer me....
Please Marc, send me his sister`s email to send my condolences. Greetings

thanks everybody :-)
How much more does she need do you think? Thank you for keeping us updated cath.
Re:For Thomas, with a little help from my friends 15 Years, 11 Months ago
Perhaps if we could have some idea of what is needed - I don't think that was ever addressed. I know it's a sensitive subject, but it's hard to reach a goal when there isn't one.
Also an update on the repatriation situation if possible. I donated a second time when I found out she may not be able to bring him home.
€1660 is currently around $2586, if that helps anyone on this side of the pond decide whether to donate or donate more. Not much for a funeral, let alone the other expenses.
I think we did pretty good, and I hope some people with (much) deeper pockets than we can find it in their hearts to give too.
Re:For Thomas, with a little help from my friends 15 Years, 11 Months ago
There is no goal. The idea was only to help her as much as we can, concretely.
I am not in contact with her, because i don't speak german. Mark will keep us informed when he receives news. The only thing i know is that the rapatriation would cost more than 10 000 EUR and i guess she has given up this idea. But she also has to get through a lot of other expenses and each help is very welcome.
