I had the honor of meeting Thea through her mother Loretta whom I used to work with at the White Sheet. She was about 16 years old at the time. Always had a beautiful smile and such a sweet person just like her mom. My heart goes out to her entire family. I know she'll be missed but will be in a better place as an Angel. My thoughts and prayers to you all during this very difficult time and may the lord comfort you through all of this. God bless.
