Tom Waits’ mother died.

Can you imagine what it would be like to have Tom Waits as a son?  What a woman she must have been.  May she rest in peace.

    Thanks for posting this. Sad day for the Waits-McMurray family indeed.

    Thanks, Jackson. As I’m an avid Tom Waits fan, and saw the recent shows with his two sons playing in the band, I feel a sort of sentimental, if completely artificial, closeness to the family.
