I am so very sorry to read of Thelma's
passing. "Mama Keso", as I always called her, was the sweetest, funniest,
kindest and most loving friend my Mother, Arleen Thomas, and I shared! I will miss her so very much but it is so
sweet to think they are reunited again, along with Kitty Javins. Those three Ladies had so many Friends and good times together.

I loved "Mama Keso" so very much and I feel your loss. May God Bless all of You and give You the Strength, Grace and Courage you will need to face the days ahead.

God be with you all...
