Rob and Mari,

it is with great sadness and a heavy heart that i write to you today. i do not know enough words to express how sincerely sorry i am for your loss.
as i mentioned in my card, i too have lost my furry son; now only a year ago.

i am so sorry for your loss, though i know that those words are not enough.
my thoughts and prayers are with you now, as always. i'm so happy that you have each other to lean on, and to remember Tyler now.

(((((Rob, Mari, Tyler, and the rest of the Thomas Family)))))

I Did Not Die

Do not stand at my grave and weep.

I am not there. I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow;

I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain;

I am the gentle Autumn’s rain.



When you awaken in the morning’s hush.

I am the swift uplifting rush

Of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the soft star that shines at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry.

I am not there;

I did not die.

"Do you remember where you were when things were heavy?"
"Maybe you can help remind us how to play one of our own songs!" ~Rob to me in St. Paul 01Aug01
"This song is...for you." - Rob, in Atlanta before he played 'Heavy' for me 24Oct05

"So we have a, one of our dear fans has been around for a long, long time and comes to a lot of our shows and she wanted us to play this song...so she kept saying 'play it, play it, play it', and i was like 'we can't, we can't' and she goes, 'why don't you do it acoustic?' '...that's not a bad idea..."
Thank you for Wonderful in Seattle 15Oct09 and beyond!! you're welcome. Wink

“I’m playing this for some friends cuz I tried to play it for them once and I screwed it up terribly. This is their favorite song so I’m going to try it again. I know I messed it up last time pretty bad. But, I, I, listen, here’s the deal, it’s because this is a song that doesn’t exist really anywhere unless you happen to have found a bootleg copy of it. Because it’s a song that matchbox twenty just started playing live and never recorded and never did really anything with and just uh, just one day just as quickly stopped playing it. And so it’s easy to forget those after years and years. So I’m trying to remember it again right now. This song is called ‘Heavy’ ” Rob, in Temecula before he played Heavy for me 19Nov05

Thanks for Heavy in Vegas 18Mar08!!!

"We're going to play something else we didn't play last night...cuz I love obscure songs!" ~ Rob 01Jan06
Rob, thanks for: Swing in Boston; Time After Time in Albany; Heavy in Atlanta; Tragedy in Melbourne; Dizzy in San Diego; Heavy and My, My, My in Temecula; Swing in Toronto; You're My Kind in Tampa; Tragedy in Hollywood; Shame in Vegas w/matchbox, Suffer Me and Bent in Burlington; You Know Me in Victoria; My, My, My in Boca; Rest Stop in Orlando; My, My, My and Recollection Phoenix in Columbus; Leave in Cuyahoga Falls; You Know Me in Birmingham; and My, My, My in Central Point; and Heavy in Vegas w/ matchbox! Also Dear Joan in St. Paul 11Oct09, Time After Time in Vancouver 14Oct09 and Wonderful (acoustic!) in Seattle 15Oct09!!
And even when I wasn’t there: Girl Like that in Providence; Rest Stop in Philadelphia; Shame in Boston; Recollection Phoenix in Verona; Kody in Uncasville; Long Day in DC; Hang in New York; Maria (shut up and kiss me) in Newark; Recollection Phoenix in Phoenix; and Leave in Oakland!


"p.s.
thanx to ashley and melissa for ISHMAEL. it's truly life changing and i recommend it to every one i meet." ~ Rob 31Aug06

"When people are screaming and roaring and shouting, the humbling thing is to realize it's not really for the band or artist on the stage. It's for their connection with the songs. A song just can own you…I think that's why concerts are so powerful. If that song is such a part of your life, and you hear it, it's too much almost." ~ Bono

My heart goes out for the loss of your beloved Tyler. Losing a pet is so amazingly difficult. Myself I can't believe it will be 1 year December 9th for My little friend being gone. She was a ferrel cat that had a great home with me and my tabby Jade. No words on your loss Rob and Mari. Saw Tyler in the tour bus leaving Tucson Music Hall, he was in the passenger seat and just looked so cute. Some lucky peeps including myself saw him. My heart felt condolences to you.

Rob, you are the greatest performer and singer of the last decade, take a break man, this tour is ridiculous,
your manager should be shunned, or at least slapped. You have nothing to prove. Keep writing, and take a break.

Rob & Mari, I'm SO sorry you've lost your beloved Tyler! I know how much it hurts, and that there really are no words that can make it easier. He's in a better place now though, and will ALWAYS be with you in spirit.

Rob and Mari,
I can't begin to tell you how sorry I am to hear of your loss. I remember the first time I met Tyler and saw him sunbathing in the window of your bus. I had the pleasure of spending a little time with him on your first solo tour and he was such a beautiful dog. Just the other day my husband and I were at the dog park with our own dog(or as some would say, our son with fur) and I swear Tyler's twin went right by us. My husband and I both did a double take and said at the same time, wow that looked just like Tyler Thomas. You did the very best for Tyler and he was so lucky to have you both as his parents.
Please know you will all be in my prayers.
Kelley

You will be in my prayers tonight, for strength and peace to come quickly. It's okay to take some time to shed some tears, though. They heal too.
So much of the love you shared for Tyler has been put to work in your efforts to help other animals. He has left a legacy of unconditional love that you pass on every day, and encourage others to share in. That's a lot for such a little dog in such a short time, and you should all be very proud, of him AND you.
Love and Hugs,
Mel

Rob & Mari, I am so sorry for the loss of your dear boy Tyler. I hope he didn't suffer, and I hope your own suffering soon fades.

Tyler knows you guys loved him beyond words, and you gave him a wonderful life of joy. I hope you find comfort in the happy years you had together, and how much better his life was because of you, and yours because of him.

Hugs from Orlando. Hang in there... the hardest part is over.
