Krystal McLane Cox writes that "in case anyone asks, the family is requesting that in lieu of flowers, donations in dad's name be made to the Texas Cave Conservancy. I ran into a wall tonight and it wasted a lot of my precious time. However, the information will all be published in this Sunday's Chronicle. That will be the Houston Chronicle. I am also running an obit in the Tullahoma News in Tullahoma, TN, where he grew up. My mom asked me tonight if I want his obit published in the NSS News and I would like to do that as well. First, I have to reach the print deadline and then I will be able to discuss that with whomever I need to. Thank you so much! "
