Post subject: | RIP Tom Barber |
Gentlemen, Last year I'd been playing Tom Barber in Campaign Peninsula, and the game had been moving along quite quickly. He suddenly disappeared with no warning. I just recieved an email from his wife that this CSA officer had passed away suddenly back in August (and she hadn't the heart to open his emails). He's only been a member a short time, but I can assure you he was an officer and a gentlemen. I do not know what CSA unit he was in, but I forwarded a copy of the letter I recieved to Gen. Mallory. Rest in Peace. Major General Gary McClellan 1st Division, XXIII Corps AoO,USA |

I too was engaged with Tom Barber last summer in a rousing Campaign Peninsula game only to recently find out about his tragic death. Although I only new him through the commraderie of cyberspace, he was a worthy and skilled opponent and more importantly a very fine person, with a clear love of Civil War history and gaming - indeed one of those people who make the game club such a pleasure to participate in. I will miss him and the club was truly honored to count one such as him, as a now now fallen member. With deepest sympathy to Tom's family, Ed Col Ed Lytwak 2/2/XV/AoT/USA |
