Terri Hern says, Bill McLain passed away on Saturday, July 24, 2010. He had
suffered a stroke a couple of months ago. As a long time corridor
resident and artist, he had many friends in the community. What a very
sweet and talented person he was!
I'm sorry to hear of Woody's passing. Woody was an
dedicated patron of the arts, supporting young and established artists
through his tireless reporting. He was also a friend who I will sorely
miss. Thanks for everything, Woody.

Woody's memorial will be at Belle Isle Beach,
August 14th, 9:30am - 11:00am

on life support. He had an aneurism (sp) on his heart. She was
requesting prayers. I have no idea how he is but i am certain that all
his friends would love to know and send their love or prayers for him or
just good vibes his way. I have not had any way to confirm this but i
have no reason to suspect that this woman is lying - she has nothing to
gain from it. If i hear anything else on this I will let you know.
Remind people to connect to those people in their lives who they love.
Thank you for keeping the tribes sight going. its so important.
Blessings,
MaryElaine & David Chambers

James Knollsays: Heather Tupy passed away in Chicago where she had been living. Best known around the
corridor as a bartender at Third Street Saloon. She was a friend and
sister to Michael Briggs and Keith Kelly. She worked for many years at
Ford and was living in Hamtramck and working for Sierra Medical up until
about a year ago when she relocated to Chicago. She was a warm person
who loved animals and lived her life like she wanted. I will always miss
her wry sense of humor.
She died unexpectedly on Thursday Feb.11,2010 at 57 years of age, cause
of death believed to be cardiac arrest. There will be a memorial in
Chicago details as yet unknown.
There also are plans in the works to celebrate her life in Detroit at
Suzy's Bar 2942 Eveline Hamtramck 872-9016. I'll try to post details
asap or call Suzy's early in March.
