I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Tommy Yetta died yesterday
morning.  The funeral will be a Schoen's on Canal Street in New Orleans at
1:00 PM Saturday.
I have no further details.

Tommy played recently at the Bix Festival in Davenport, Iowa.  Tommy had
also played with the Bayou Liberty Jazz Band in Slidell, LA.
