To; The Entire Thomas Family

Gowing up with Donna, Debra and Irene at the "old" First Baptist" on Blue Hills ave. Your mom always had a beautiful smile. And when I had my set of twins she would always whisper words of encouragement in my ear on Sundays. Her presence will truly be missed. she used to sit at the breakfast table on some Sundays in the fellowship hall and we would talk about the days past. She kept Mr. Tthomas on his toes as well. I love you all and will keep you in my prayers daily,

To my spiritual dad Deacon Thomas and The entire Family- Momma Myrtice was a true spiritual mother to me- Since the first day I met her when the Church was located on Greenfield St in Hartford known then as First Baptist, she has never , ever changed towards me . She has always treated me with love and kindness and has always encouraged me when I would get discouraged and told me to continue to hold my head up high because God loved me and has a wonderful plan for my life. It is so hard to let someone go who means so much to so many people. May beautiful memories of a life lived to it's fullest linger and the shawdow of pain be lessened each passing day. She will truly be missed.

We are sending our love and condolences. I am sorry we did not realize that it was Mrs. Thomas the day Donna called my mom Dorothy Thomas. She was confused as to who was calling. We know that God will be with you in your time of sorrow and help to carry you through.
