In memoriam: All CCC members are grieved to learn of the untimely death of  Thomas William Hayes, 44. After two short years of tournament competition, Thomas' rating increased from 1200 to 1500+ quickly regarding him as one of the strongest contenders of the Middle Section.  A mild mannered, respectful gentleman, loving husband and father of two, he will be sorely missed.  Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
