Its been 7 long hard months since you left us so suddenly, the boys especially Vell misses you sooo much that it hurts me to see him go thru so much pain, but I know 1 day the both of them will realize they had a great man for a dad while u were here.Now the holidays have once a again rolled around & they miss u even more, they miss the way u always calld @ the last minute askn them what did they want for christmas, the way u tried to sneak their stuff in the house, they just miss u. So until we meet again, keep knowing that their love for you will never die in them as long as your blood still runs through their veins. missing you Thomas & Thai'Vell

Damn BFF where do I start???? This has been a really rough close to 3months for me.... my nights has still been as sleepless as they were when you 1st left. Hopefully things will get better but as of right now its not. I used to think I was gonna wake up and see a text message from you saying you had pulled an all nighter again and for me to call you before I go to my 1st formation. I miss you Thomas and you will always remain in my heart. I will never forget our talks and the "Realest Advice" I always got from you and gave to you. Your departing has changed my life in a way that I cant even begin to put in words. I will take this negative experience and will turn it into a positive learning experience. God don't make mistakes and now I know I have an angel on my team that will watch over me until my day comes. I luv you BFF....

To the Johnson family,
We are sorry to hear of your sudden lost. May God's comfort and care guide you each through this most difficult time. Although to us his time on life seems to have been short, but know that it was not wasted. He came to do what he was called to do. And he leaves behind a legacy of love, hoe, strength, and courage. His loving light will continue to shine through the joys of his family and friends. Memorable keepsakes that may be forever cherished. Worm, he will forever be a part of you. Continue honor and cherish his memory by being the best grandmother that you can be. Allow his love and kindness to shine in and through you. To each of you be blessed.
I MISS U TALL R.I.P

Tito, who would have ever known our hug Friday night at Roxc's would be our last. God needed one of his Angels so he called you home. You are truly missed but never forgotten. Some enter our lives for a season but leave a cherished lifelong stain. R.I.P, Tall T.

Wow!! Over 130 entries on this Guestbook as of 04/29/2010 @ 12:00pm. Now that does say a lot about the kind of life this young man lived. I didn't know Thomas; however from what I've read he was truly an Angel right here on Earth and loved by so many. Words can not express the sadness I feel for your family. At this time of sorrow, may these truths sustain you... Your loved one will always be as close as a memory, and the God of all comfort will always be as close as a prayer.

To the Johnson Family, I just wanted to send my condolences from me and the rest of the Brooks family. 125 entries in a guestbook says alot about how many lives Thomas has touched. It's a blessing to have had someone in your life that was able to touch so many people in a special way. Thomas was cool with my brother and sister. He didn't know me that well but still used to pick with me and call me "Lil Gee Gee". I know that he was a nice and funny person and I will always remember that about him. To Thomas, Rest In Peace, and to his family and friends, I pray for you all that your memories of him may comfort you in this time of sadness.

My deepest sympathy to the family of Lil Thomas. Know that God will comfort you and bring you peace. Also know that "Tall" is in the Heavenly skies smiling down on you. You may grieve, but only do so for a little while, because I'm sure he would want you to celebrate his life and the memories of him that makes your heart smile; and ultimately, he is now living the life all of us here on earth dream of... Eternal Life
Sincerely,
