Ayla Thomas Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Lamb-Basham Memorial Chapel Inc on Mar. 19, 2026.
In loving memory of Ayla Dynell Thomas, age 3 ½.

It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved daughter, Ayla, who left us far too soon at the tender age of 3 ½. Though her time with us was brief, her spirit was radiant, her laughter contagious, and her love boundless.

Ayla was a sweet, joyful little girl who adored singing and cherishing every moment spent with her family. Her smile could brighten a room, and her gentle heart touched everyone she met.

She leaves behind her loving sisters, Arya Thomas and Tesla Thomas, who will carry her memory in their hearts forever.

She is also survived by her devoted parents, Lacey and Prestin Thomas, and her proud grandparents, Kari and Wilfred Thomas and Darrell Mitchell. Her memory is also cherished by her extended family, who were blessed to know her vibrant spirit.

Three angels were waiting in heaven to welcome her; her brother Tyler, her grandmother, Marcella, and her great grandmother, Dolores.

Ayla will forever be remembered as a beautiful soul who brought immeasurable joy to all who knew her. Her laughter, songs, and love will remain in our hearts eternally.

A private celebration of her life will be held by her family.

Lamb Basham Memorial Chapel is honored to be entrusted with the arrangements and care of the family.

Family and friends may send messages of comfort to www.lambbasham.com.
