The good news is that the last time he posted, he mentioned that he had more treatment ahead and would report back to us in the future, and that was one day before the last time he logged in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted July 27, 2022 Report Share Posted July 27, 2022 He once sent me a little banner of the last football game that my best friend in the world (a Vikings fan) and I ever watched together before he passed. Browns vs Vikings in Europe. A very thoughtful guy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcam222 Posted August 8, 2022 Report Share Posted August 8, 2022 I’d love to know how Tour is doing for sure. Always enjoyed chatting with him here and via the points league which he loved. That said there is awful lot of personal info here posted with addys numbers and such. Just the kind of thing along with details on his situation that identify thieves might jump on.

Like I said if anyone's interested just contact Larry or me for it. Larry can take down Tour2ma's address IF he thinks it's necessary. Yes I'm careful with personal information -but- nobody here has heard from Tour since May......very unusual for him.

And my wife was a nurse in ONE hospital system for 42 years just ending in 2018 from the old, old General Hospital days to computers and cards to get buried information. Remember when a person's chart was on a clipboard hanging on the footboard of the bed ? Not today. If a person is OK with their address or even phone then it's up to them to post it. Sometimes I miss the good ol' days......on everything including sports. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted August 8, 2022 Report Share Posted August 8, 2022 HIPPA is a necessary evil. None of us here should be able to find out medical/health information regarding Tour. Of course, when my 93 year old Dad was brought to the hospital from the Veteran's Home, I'd meet him there and was involved with him, his doctors, nurses, medical decisions, etc. But once I left and was calling on the phone I was once again shielded from that. I remember once telling the floor nurses station while on the phone with them, "Well look, good luck getting info from the 93 year old." And of course, she said to me, "I know! It really is silly sometimes." (Dear God, please heal up Tour.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasAg1969 Posted August 11, 2022 Report Share Posted August 11, 2022 My note to Bruce & Spouse went out this morning (thanks DBone for that address) and hopefully I will get a call this weekend depending on how long snail mail takes to get 200 miles to east Texas. They now have my address as well as phone number. Bruce and I have talked several times over the years by telephone, so hopefully I get some contact back from one or both. I will let you know anything they are comfortable with me sharing here on the board as soon as I hear anything.🙏 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasAg1969 Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 I mailed that message out a week ago today and I have not had a call back or a reply through snail mail as of yet. That makes me wonder if maybe they are in a treatment center somewhere (hopefully) and not at home at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieHardBrownsFan1 Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Although I don't know Tour personally, we did go to the same Junior and Senior high Schools. We don't agree politically, but that doesn't matter. I wish him a peaceful journey to whatever lies beyond. Homie. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 I'm so saddened to hear this. He was so kind as to mail memorabilia of the final game that my best friend and I watched together before my friend passed. And now, he's passing. So saddened. I'm sure Zombo, that you've asked his wife to remember us to him...and that we love him. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumby73 Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 This one really hurts 💔 pal.. 🙏 Bruce & I had plans of meeting up at the Philly draft now some 5 years ago.. Bruce shared a link of a hotel that he stayed at in his past travels.. I'll share some PM's between us.. There the oldest PM's I've kept.. This Stud has a heart of gold Tour2ma 5,695 Started conversation: October 21, 2016 I have it in mind to go, but not sure it will happen. Did a quick trivago and there is one great deal not too far from the Ritz where the draft will be, The Alexander Inn. It's 3-star and graded 88/100 for $139/night. Here's the link: (I booked room soon after T's PM/ my son-in-law went in T's place) Like I said, may not happen for me, but a draft is kind of a bucket list thing for me as well. Plus my best friend from college still lives an hour or so north of Philly. Tour2ma 5,695 Replied: April 22, 2017 Gumby Sad to say the Philly draft is not happening for me. Maybe next year... in Cleveland! Represent us well.... Tour Tour2ma 5,695 Replied: April 22, 2017 Glad you were able to make use of Tour Travel ... Hope it turns out to be as decent as my stay and as it appears online... (on my return, I later PM'd T, a thanks & the hotel & service was great!) Have yourself a blast... and please draft Myles Garrett... (👍 ✔️) Lord hear our Prayers 🙏 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibleedbrown Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 That’s really sad. “Never got to see them win a Superbowl” is becoming an exponential refrain among our kind. And it’s not really just about winning the Superbowl, it’s about sharing that elusive experience with family and friends, especially the older ones who made you a fan. You want it for them more than anything. Godspeed Tour into wherever the afterlife goes. You will be missed. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
