It’s been a few months without Tom Spurgeon and the reality isn’t any easier. But for friends who are in New York, a memorial will be held tomorrow at the Society of Illustrators. It’s being organized by Tom’s great friend Gil Roth, and he asks that you RSVP here.
“I had an amazing life, and my love for my family is unsurpassed, followed nearly as much as the love for my closest friends. Be kind to yourselves, and live in laughter as much as possible. I love you. Thanks for everything.”
–Tom SpurgeonPlease join us on the evening of Friday, January 24, 2020, at the Society of Illustrators (128 E. 63rd St., New York, NY), to celebrate the life of Tom Spurgeon. We invite all who knew, loved, and admired Tom to join us for this public memorial, in lieu of a funeral service.
