"This whole issue is so pathetic. I'm sure that every William's
fan is
outraged!! Will his poor soul ever rest in peace?? I can only pray...

"I do not know who thought the idea of reinstituting life after
being cryogenically frozen. I think there should be an investigation
to find the person, make him agree to die, and cryogenically freeze
him, so he could prove later that he can be resurrected. "
"This is one of the biggest farces ever perpetuated on the
human race. How can anyone be stupid enough to believe this?
If you want to be resurrected, I suggest you become a consecrated
christian to insure your eternal inheritance with Jesus Christ and
his Father, God. The only time we will see life again, once we
die,
is to go to heaven or hell. It is our choice to decide
which one."
"This lab should have never been permitted to operate. The
name
of the game is the same old thing, M-O-N-E-Y."

"A tragedy like no other. Bring Ted home and give him and his
first born peace. It will never be over for her as long as her father's
wishes are ignored. One day Ted's other offspring will have to
face their maker. I wonder if they're ready for that. I think
not!!"

Thank you! I appreciate your newsletter. It inspired me to
write
2 United States Senators in Arizona, and 2 United States Senators
in Florida. It may not accomplish much, but it made me feel better.
Thanks again!

"As long as he remains frozen his great accomplishments are diminished."

"This is sad and sick. Why don't they just let him rest in
peace?
What kind of sicko is John Henry?"

"I have been disturbed with the latest addition to the legacy of Ted
Williams.
Unfortunately, I am too young to have seen him play, however I have idolized
him
nearly all my life. I heard stories from my Dad, godfather
and even got a
Ted Williams-like glove from my great uncle. People close to me
revered him
as the greatest hitter and they passed this reverence down to me."
"While I wasn't able to see his .406, his triple crowns, the 1946 series,
his final at-bat
and all of his other great accolades (not to mention his service to America
during
two wars), however I did everything I could to learn about Ted.
I read every book
that has been written on him or that he wrote (and I am not a fly fisherman)."
"In fact, I credit Ted for my best season in the Little League after
reading the
Science of Hitting."
"What worries me is the current generation and generations to come won't
see Ted
as the greatest hitter to play the game. I worry that his legacy
will become stained
over this situation. And that really bothers me."
"Please let me know if I can do anything to help see that Ted can finally
rest
in peace at sea off the coast of Florida."

"You cannot bring someone back to life. If you could they would
not have
a soul anyway. Hopefully Ted Williams is in heaven
and can rest there forever.
Please put an end to this."

"Williams should be treated with the same respect as DiMaggio or Mantle."

"Mr. Williams' treatment is an absolute travesty. Mr. Williams
deserves
so much more than this freak show. His remarkable
life should be honored."
.
08/12/03 TA
"It's a complete travesty what they have done to 'The Splendid Splinter.'
Mr. Williams deserves so much more than the freak show he is getting.
My condolences not only on his passing but also on his treatment
after his remarkable life."
.

"I believe Ted
Williams should be buried (treated), as he wished. And his
son should be charged with a crime along with his cronies, this is fraud."

"My heart and prayers goes out to the faithful daughter and her husband,
for all they have tried to do and for all they have gone through in memory
of a
father in need of final dignity!"

"I've been devestated about this since it happened...
My prayers are
with his daughter, Bobby Jo...."

"Dear Mr. Goddard: Please, I encourage you, through your good office,
to investigate Alcor Life Extension located in Scottsdale, Arizona, and consider
enforcement
of the state's Consumer Fraud Act in order to secure the release of
Ted Williams' final remains, so that his
wishes as stated in his final will can be
carried out in full."

"I am a family member, and I have to say there is nothing in my knowledge
of Ted Williams to lead me to believe this is what he wanted after death.
A
terrible insult to a great man's life and memory."

"Since there was so much negative
news concerning this matter, we would really
like to know if an investigation is in progress, and if so, what is the
result?
Thanks for your response."

"I will send in the form. Thanks for your concerns
with Ted.
He was a very close personal friend of mine.
I cannot stomach what has happened to him after his death."

"Let's honor Ted Williams' wishes in his legal will for
him to be cremated.
This will has been ignored by his
son and the courts."

"Please keep this going to "Save Ted."

"I feel so sad for Bobby Jo and her husband Mark. My
heart goes
out to them. I pray that they someday will
have their dad back and be able to follow through with
his wishes of
cremation. All my Love."

"I agree that this is a disgraceful end to a life
that was so positive.
With baseball being only one
element of this true American hero's life."

"Wonderful! Hope that we can get something accomplished
here and
finally put my grandfather to rest according
to his true wishes. My family and I appreciate any and
all help we
get from supporters such as yourself.
Please continue the fight and maybe together, we can
free Ted Williams.
Thanks so much and God Bless!"

"Hello, I am writing to you regarding the website you
have established
for Ted Williams. While I do not
know you personally..., I would like to take a moment
to thank you from the bottom
of my heart, on behalf
of my entire family. This is truly an injustice,
not only by law, but by his personal wishes,
which
were known and stated to all of us. Retrieving
his body from Alcor is all we could ever want to see
happen
at this point..."
"We would love nothing more than to see justice brought
to Ted Williams,
not just the American hero, but also
the man that he was to our family. I just wanted to
express my appreciation
to you and let you know that
I am definitely going to file both an inquiry and
a complaint form, and I thank you for
keeping this
story alive."

"Thanks for posting this site! I have supported
Bobby Jo and her
husband Mark to fight this situation.
It was unfortunate that we could not garner enough
support to continue the fight.
We were able to
obtain some funds from Bobby Doerr and Don Larsen,
and I contributed as well to the Ted Williams Last
Wish
Fund. Let us know how we can help."

"I couldn't agree with you more. John Henry has gone too
far this time."
