Exactly.
I’m just coming up for air today. Been in a funk all week.
I’m sure she’ll release something sweet and heartbreaking soon.

Lucinda Williams just posted a beautiful tribute on instagram and FB today.
Tom’s daughters have great pics up on Instagram.

I’m devastated.

Maybe, she has the good manners to wait until his wife and family put out a statement.
Then she will surely say something.
They must all be in shock and his family traumatised..
It's dreadful when someone dies unexpectedly and quite young really...

Thanks guys. I'm thinking the same, she's waiting for now, but will ultimately say something.

Tom had said in various interviews that she was and would follow him around like "a puppy dog". Tom was married in the mid 70's thru all of the 80's and he always seemed to be the kind that would never cheat. Maybe they did, maybe they didn't only Stevie now knows for sure but Tom had said she was in love with him.

Benmont Tench put out a statement yesterday on twitter.

He thanked everyone for their kinds works about Tom and how much it meant to them and Tom's family. He said it meant a lot.

I have been a bit perplexed by the silence as well. Last night I did some poking around. I had listened to the 911 call on TMZ and formed a couple loose opinions based on that. Then after poking around, I draw my own weak conclusions; that perhaps Tom has been smoking for 45 years and probably developed heart disease. His Stone interview last year sounded a bit pessimistic about the 40 yr tour, which was extended(?) Then when he fell and fractured his hip, he was probably urged to cancel or postpone and go for surgery, but Tom being Tom, wasn’t having it out of sense of obligation and sheer stubbornness. He was in a great deal of pain at the end. I’ve never heard of someone having a heart attack due to pain, but the two conditions together (hip fracture and heart disease) have an extremely high risk for heart attack. I also found an article that said he hadn’t been to a doctor in almost 20 years. Likely he didn’t like what he was being told back then. I think for sheer stubbornness he is no longer with us and I think Stevie may be experiencing some feelings of betrayal that has kept her quiet. I only say this because it might be the way I felt if I had someone I really cared about have something similar happen to them.

Thanks for seeing my post from a different perspective and trying to support me. I try and avoid the negativity, especially the really aggressive stuff as the person who posts like that must really have something going on that I'll never understand. Have a great day!

Don't want to be a Debbie Downer, BUT that's not what TP had implied in several interviews??

I don't want to be contrary at this very sad time, but I'm thinking Stevie hasn't posted anything because she might not be able to lift her head off the pillow. I understand that she posted remarks about Prince and Glenn Frey, but I think this is a loss that is far more personal and shocking than she's had in a very long time~maybe since the loss of her mother. I believe she thought of Tom Petty as not just a very good friend who was special to her, but rather a family member. Just my humble opinion.

All valid points. I have been thinking the same things all week. And don’t forget, Stevie hates social media!

Are you really that sensitive? Why did you feel the need to try and have the last word? Your comment just wasn't sufficient. End of story. You provided nothing to back it. I'm not aggressive, I just think you needed to add anything worth reading. Now you have a great day too!

Totally agree, but I'd still like to hear/read her remember him whenever she's ready.
