To the Thomas Family.....No words, however kindly meant, can soothe your pain away, but with each passing day I pray you have hope and comfort through memories and the heartfelt prayers of friends who mourn with you. I have known Jeff since I was six years old. He always made me laugh. Our mothers were the best of friends. He helped me so much when I loss my mom a year ago......Always trying to keep in touch. I want you to know what a wonderful man and friend he has been to all of us from Flour Bluff for years. I will miss him dearly. May the Lord wrap his arms around your family and give you strength, My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

I am saddened to hear about the loss of Jeff. I had known Jeff since 5th grade. He was always a pleasure to be around. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers, and know that the Lord says He is a refuge and strength in our times of need. Psalm 46:1 blessings, Priscilla

Dear Thomas Family,
Jeff Thomas was the first person I met at FedEx in 1986. Jeff was there to help me on my first day on the job. He was so funny. We laughed and laughed. I learned an important lesson from Jeff: the importance of having a great sense of humor, especially, in the workplace. Jeff's great sense of humor never wavered. In many ways, I can think of no greater lesson or gift to impart than the gift of laughter.

To the Thomas family....there are no words to express such a loss. Jeff was a close friend for the last 42 years. When going through high school, most people have 2 or 3 best friends. Jeff was one of mine. I have so many fond memories of our experiences while growing up. He was totally unpredictable which made him so unique. One thing for sure, he never failed to bring a smile to our faces with his quick wit and humor. He often made the most profound statements at the most awkward times, his timing was the best. He was our Senior Class "Jester", a title he well deserved. Jeff will be missed dearly.
My prayers and condolences go out to you. May the Lord bring you strength at this particular time of sorrow.

Michelle,Madeline,Cate and the entire Thomas family, Jeff was one my best friends while at FedEx, and we continued to speak a several times a year catching up. He was very proud of his girls, and was always wanting know about my family. I'll never forget Jeff making me call Michelle from Vegas to tell her he won some money. He told me "she would never believe me". Jeff will be missed by many and he will always have a special place in my heart. I wish I could come to Memphis and be a part of celebrating his life. God bless all of you!
