Death (to the tomato plant)

Oh woe is me. A deeply saddened gardener writes to you today with news of the demise of a tomato plant. Poor little Window Box Roma is heading to the great marinara sauce in the sky by way of the compost heap.
It was found two days ago drooping limply over the side of its container, not a sign of life to be found beyond its wan, green colour. It will be missed, but soon replaced. You know the saying: get right back in the saddle again. Or in this case: waste not the short Canadian growing season; replant immediately!
