A moving tribute, and as always Dr. Koffman includes some reassurance for us.

I looked at the memorial fund. It asks for donations for the fund but doesn't say what the money would be used for.

This statement that appears at the end of the tributes seems to be the clue to where the funds would be used, though I am unsure if the statement is from Brian and the CLL Society:

"Finally, at the request of Tom’s wife, the CLL Society has established the Thomas Henry Memorial Fund. If you are interested in supporting our mission of support, education, advocacy, and research in CLL/SLL, the family has suggested in lieu of flowers, one consider a donation."

That was a great tribute. Tom’s words are still helping us.
