One of the most induring memories of the Thomas family I have was the smile you all posessed. I credit that to the way in which you were raised by your parents, two wonderful people who loved and cared for you greatly. Hold your mother and each other close in this time of need. Your father was a fine gentleman and I feel for your loss.
