Starla Thomas

Linda and Ken, So sorry for your loss. You should be proud of her from what her peers wrote. Our thoughts are with you and her extended family. Linda and Lynn Long

I am shocked and saddened to her of Starla' passing. She was such a wonderful person and a great principal. Her first priorities were always her children and her staff. I will never forget when one of my kindergarteners holding a wet, dripping paint brush in each hand trapped her in a corner of the room. She handled it with humor and love. Goodby Strla--I will miss you so much.

Starla was a beloved friend and a consummate educator. Her dedication to children was reflected in her career as well as her personal life. Kind, good-natured and willing to help wherever there was need, Starla inspired us all. I will miss her.

Starla you were there in good times and bad. You helped me through a lot. I will never forget when you locked your self in the neighbors garage and was yelling for me to let you out. You will be forever in my heart.

Too soon for such a sweet lady...many thanks to Starla for leading us...she called us her children. Gloria Lesher, Retired Teacher

I was fortunate to teach at Morningside Elementary with Starla as my principal. Amazing educator and person. Her support, communication and skills shined every day. So sad to hear this news.

I have known Starla since she started to teach. I am so shocked and saddened by this news. She will be missed.
