Thomas J.Craughwell 1956-2018

[L Verge]

I have just learned that Thomas J. Craughwell, author of "Stealing Lincoln's Body" had passed away on June 13 at the age of 61.

I am heartbroken to hear this! Tom spoke at our Surratt conference several years ago when Stealing Lincoln's Body was published. He was an excellent speaker, both in historical knowledge as well as the ability to relate it in a manner that kept the audience enthralled.

Sorry, folks, but I am really tired of losing the good ones in this world too soon...
