To The Thomas Family and all who mourn the loss of our Loving Dee Dee, I Pray for Peace and Comfort in this very sad time.  Dee Dee is like a Sister to me and I will truly miss her gentle, caring smile as well as her sincere heart.  I know that God is in control and he will take care of the pain and hurt that I am feeling at this time, so I trust him…..Dee Dee will be missed by so many who Love her!  To You My Precious Dee Dee, My Tears will always fall ever so gently down my face when I think about not being able to talk to you, see you or hear your voice.  But I know that GOD has you now…..Sleep Peacefully My Love. 
I Love You, Now, Today, Forever and Always

Dear Family,
Words can never keep you all from grieving a lady like Dee Dee. She was one of a kind and her mold has been forever broken. Man, God made no one like sweet Dee Dee. She and I worked together for the past 14 years. We argued all the time but it was all in fun. She either told me that she loved me or I’d say that to her before we got off the phone. I miss her terribly and I’m just a friend, coworker. I can’t imagine what y’all are going through right now. Plesae know that you all will be in my prayers asking God to comfort you in His loving arms. God love you all.
Sincerely,
Chuck Hager

Cuzzo DeeDee,
hard to believe you are gone from this side! I was reminded of your “signature glaze over your glasses” and I smiled! I was remembering you teasing me about eating tofu, I remember you bring ” your boys” and a treat to the cookouts, I remember your simple and kind ways. I love you! Uncle James, Vanessa and Karen, somehow some way trusting God to carry you through this very difficult season! I love you family ❤️💕

Sending my deepest condolence to the family I saw Deedee almost every day at the mini-mart up on King she’d be getting off of work and I’d be going we’d greet each then I’d say here we are donating again she’d say right that’s where I was on Tuesday when I heard that she had passed even the lady that works there said OMG! What happened to Dee-Dee. Even when I went there on Friday she shared with me how she thought about Deedee that night and said such a nice lady she was hope it gives you all comfort knowing that she was well-known and loved by many who are grieving her loss with you. Love you guys

DeeDee!! So happy to have had the chance to spend quality time with you!! A beautiful, kind and generous soul! Was blessed with meeting you at the fabulous Banzhof’s Cafe!! Had the most amazing, crazy, fun times working with you there. Memories that will never be forgotten. The people, music, food and fun, so glad to have shared that with you! Happier still that we had a hug and some laughter a short while ago. You never know when that last time, will actually be that “last time”! Always quality time with DeeDee, a smile, and that laugh, I can hear it now!! LOL  To the family, my prayers and thoughts are with you. Like the song says, thank you for being a friend! Rest In Paradise.
