Hunter S. Thompson is dead now, and I am poorer for it. His death has left many people flabbergasted and wondering why it had to happen this way. It has left a large void in the literary world which will likely never be filled again. Naturally, I never got to meet him, like Douglas Adams before him.

I have always considered a high school reunion to just be an event that happens every 10 years or so and get people together again to see what path life has taken them down. After, I graduated high school, I have always wondered if I would attend high school reunions or would I simply choose to leave the past behind.

“I never want to grow up,” said my sister.
“Me neither,” my brother said.

[Editor’s Note: We have many distinguished and accomplished professionals who are contributors and authors of articles for GO INSIDE magazine. Dr. Kay Thompson, was a highly visible and honored woman in dentistry and in hypnosis worldwide. She wrote Autohypnosis for Bruxism for us. All of us here at GO INSIDE will remember her fondly as an incredible and wonderful person. Jeffrey Zeig, Ph.D., Director of the Milton H. Erickson Foundation, Inc., has provided this following eulogy. – Stephen Lankton, MSW]
Kay Thompson, DDS, died Tuesday, May 26, 1998 at 10:20 PM of adenocarcenoma of unknown primary origin. The worlds of hypnosis and dentistry have lost an irreplaceable leader, and a great friend.
I knew Kay for 24 years during which time she was my teacher, advisor, colleague and friend. I first met her in 1974 when she taught at a regional workshop I attended that was sponsored by the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH). She intimidated me. She was an imposing figure, so sure of herself and so talented. I already knew Erickson, and knew that Kay was one of his primary students. She and Robert Pearson, M.D. were Erickson’s chosen successors in guiding ASCH.
