September 14, 2007, Friday afternoon, Hugh E. Thomasson (Hughie) was laid to rest. There were several members of the southern rock era there offering their support including the Allman Brothers band, Marshall Tucker, .38 Special, and of course the remaining members of The Outlaws, along with family and friends.
The memorial service began with family photos and a CD that Hughie had made with his granddaughter.It become obvious, early into the service, that Hughie’s biggest priority had been his family. Each member told their fondest recollections of times spent together. The chance was then given to all who knew him to take a moment to share their own stories of how they came to know Hughie.
The music world mourns the loss of the pioneer of Southern Rock music, a great guitarist, vocalist and friend. His memory will live on through his songs and in our hearts. Hughie will be sadly missed.
By Frank Guidry, the Founding Member of The Outlaws.
