Adam Lambert 24/7 News

Adam said in the early Rolling Stone article that one of his greatest fears is something happening to one of his parents. I know that Tommy will be surrounded and held with the message of love that can only come from friends who share your heart and soul. Whatever we, as uniquely human, are doing to eradicate this terrible disease from the World has new meaning this morning for this family and countless others who have suffered its devastation. Give to cancer research.

God Bless Tommy. Sending you and your family spheres of love, light and healthy energy in your time of sadness. You have a rock solid "glamily" to hold you, and soothe you. Just know that you and your family are being held close in millions of hearts today.

My thoughts are in Tommy and his family. I hope they're okay.

Losing a parent is more devestating than one ever thinks it will be and my heart goes out to Tommy. So young to lose someone so close. God bless you and your family.

This is so sad to hear. I hope Tommy takes a week off to go back and be with his family....

I will keep Tommy and his family in my prayers.

Losing any of your family members is very devastating. It is like a part of you just died. It's a part of life that we have to face and accept when it comes, and you never really know how it really feels until it happens to your own family. I've experienced it and truly understood how it really feels when it's one of your own.

Condolence to Tommy and his entire family... RIP to his Dad.

Ditto to message above 10.20...
says it all ""you never really know how it really feels until it happens to your own family. I've experienced it too....its very hard to deal with...keep strong Tommy xx

Sending MUCH LOVE to Tommy and his family xx

My thoughts are with Tommy and his family at this most difficult time. Adamluv

Our family has also experienced losing a loved one from cancer. My husband lost his dad to lung cancer who was like a father to me too. It was a gutwrenching and most difficult time.

Tommy take comfort that your father no longer has to suffer and knows how much you loved him. Your Glamfamily extends from all over the world and our hearts and prayers are with you and your family.

I just read on twitter that Tommy will be on tonight's show....

What a workaholic :( I hope he takes time off though. It's better to be alone.....

I'm glad Tommy has friends in Adam and the band etc....

My heart as well as millions of Tommy's fans go out to him and his family in this time of sadness. It's one of the biggest losses we will ever have to face in life. I also lost my dad to cancer and my biggest comfort was he no longer suffered with pain and he passed to a peaceful place, knowing he was loved. I pray that Tommy and his family will find comfort with beautiful memories that will never be lost and share them with each other. My sister and I were grateful that God gave us the gift of our dad for as long as we had him and we still feel his beautiful spirit every day. I'm so glad that Tommy has the love and support of his glamily and he has ours too. Bless you and your loved ones, Tommy With loving prayers, funbunn40

So sorry Tommy. Your dad was too young, and you are too young to be losing a parent. Take some comfort in knowing that your ability, talent and love have brought so much joy to others. Peace to you Glitterbaby.

Our hearts are with you and your family dear Tommy. You will be with your second family tonight. Love to you and yours.

Just read that there will be a private memorial for Ron Ratliff. You can send letters to the family at: PO Box 6261, Burbank, Cal. 91510. Also that Tommy will perform tonite in Oklahoma. Adamluv

You posters above me write such beautiful things and you said it all , I couldn't say more.

Lit a candle for his dad and apparently Tommy is on his way back to OK for the show tonight.

I think its going to be a rather emotional show. I know for me, listening to "Aftermath" will take on a new significance - "...just remember, you are not alone in the aftermath."

My thoughts are with Tommy and his family in their time of mourning. I hope they are all able to pull through this hard time.

It is so devastating to lose a parent. no matter when it happens... I lost my dad at about the same age as Tommy...and can still remember the terrible and unreal feeling of shock and loss of my dear friend and father...and still miss him desperately many years later...

My heartfelt sympathy and condolences to Tommy and his family.....may his dad rest in the gentle and loving arms of the Universe....And may Tommy feel the love sent to him from his many fans and Glamily....I have every confidence that Adam and crew will take good care of him...

Condolences to Tommy and his family. It is very hard to lose a parent. Perhaps since Tommy is a musician who can virtually play every instrument in the band, music will be his solace and help him to find his way at this very difficult time tonight. I know Oklahoma fans will give him the love.
Oklahoma has had their share of tragedy and they know how to love and we love them right back.

I echo all the lovely sentiments above me. Rest, comfort and peace for Mr. Ratliff now.

Tommy, I cry, and my heart breaks for you. It is so hard to lose a parent - both of mine are gone, my mom lost to cancer. My husband battled small cell lung cancer for 10 agonizing months, and I lost him, too. Helplessly I watched the disease consume him. This monstrous beast must be tamed - give to cancer research, Glamily! Know that your many fans are wrapping you in hugs and keeping you close in prayer. My deepest sympathy to you and your family at this sad time. Your father's love will always shine like a little candle in your heart. It will never be extinguished. We love you, Tommy. Be gentle to youself. Healing takes time.

So sorry to hear about this. No matter what your age, when you lose a parent, you become a small child again. I lost my father in '90 and when I lost my mother in '07, I felt like an orphan as a grown woman. My prayers for healing are genuine. There will be times many years in the future that will stop you in your tracks and make the pain new again, but there will also be things that make you laugh out loud. There is a pool of tears for your father tonight, Tommy from everyone in the worldwide Glamily.

oh, this is indeed sad news! poor tommy...my prayer goes to Tommy and his family.

My thoughts are also with Tommy at this time. I too lost my father when I was very young and then later in life, my mother. And now I've become a widow as of a few years ago.

It does take time to heal and you never get over losing someone, you in time just get used to the feelings and then eventually you remember all the good stuff.

I wish for Tommy to eventually remember all the happy times with his dad.

My thoughts and prayers to Tommy and his family at this sad time. I too have lost both parents to cancer in the last 5 1/2 years, its the hardest thing,whatever your age.

HK fan

I hope Tommy takes time off if he feels he wants or needs to.
Sometimes working helps you to take your mind off it, but
sometimes music brings out the emotions too. I remember I went
to do a little amateur gig and had to go back home again.

Oh gosh. I am blinking back tears. Such sad news. Everyone above me said such touching and beautiful sentiments that I can only nod and agree. I hope Tommy is doing ok...he is going to get a big, fierce group hug from his Glamily tonight. Tommy - can you feel our vibes? Sending peace and love your way.

So sorry for your loss Tommy
