He became a quadriplegic and faced his disability with joy and a new ministry.

(Laguna Woods, CA)—Kevin Thomson—the "Ox" of Christian bass players and founder of the Sweet Comfort Band (SCB)—died [on May 30th 2010], in Southern California, after a long battle with illness.

This was announced by singer Bryan Duncan who said, "Kevin followed Jesus Christ. His favorite SCB tune, of course, was the one with the longest bass solo in it! Get Ready was a staple in the band's set through six albums and eleven years. We closed the show with it even to the last concert. The song is a proclamation of the return of Christ and perhaps the mission statement of Sweet Comfort Band. Get Ready! (Photo by: Dan Wooding)

"In the end Kevin had his own cross to bear and yet some thought something might be wrong with him because he never went through the depression that comes with quadriplegia. But then maybe knowledge is power here too! Kevin knew that 'the One who knows is in control' even to the end of his life he was steadfast in his trust of a Savior who doesn't explain our circumstances to us.

"'Sweet Comfort' was the description of Kevin Thomson's hope in Jesus. There's a new bass solo in the heavenly angel band."

Last year, I was able to interview Kevin and his wife Robin for my Front Page Radio show on KWVE 107.9 FM and found him as courageous as ever.

In his playing days, Kevin Thomas was compared to John Entwistle, the brilliant bass guitarist of The Who, who was called the "Ox" because of his aggressive lead sound, but when I met with Kevin, he was facing the greatest challenge of his life—he was confined to a wheelchair as a quadriplegic.
