Hard to believe it has been four years. She would be sooooooooo proud of you. Mama and the girls, forever!

Beautiful woman beautiful soul as reflected through her daughters remember going to Hunters for dinner was proud to be there and honored when I met Mrs Thomas we laughed about my Chicago connection and had a wonderful time I could see the connection that someone else has with their mother like I with mine. Live on Sis Thomas in that mansion not made by hand if you find a good wing and crown shop let my mom know she likes to dress too!

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

I miss you just as much today, as I did when you passed on May 19, 2012.  I love you mommy forever! Until we meet again... Your baby Via..

Everyday is a day of Thanksgiving and my mother's spirit is with us 24 hours a day!  I believe she is proud of her 3 girls and as the eldest I am going to watch over them as she and my father would have. We met Mayor Bob Filner today and we will make sure her legacy will thrive in Jesus name Amen & Amen.

On this day June 10, 2013 your daughters Marcia, Kammy, and Via immortalized your memory book forever.... We love you Always and Forever... In Jesus name. Hallelujah...

Sending you all love today ... and to your mom, pouring libations of gratitude and love and asking her to stay in touch ... I am sure she is smiling on all three of you and loving you always ...

One year and 1 day... Still missing my mommy.  Love you forever Mommy....

Donna Johnson (Markham, IL)

Marcia, Kammy and Via, I just want you to know that I will treasure every memory of Aunt Leedoriest and the times we all shared. It is comforting to know that she is now reunited with Uncle Randy. They are and always will be my favorite aunt and uncle. I miss them both. Love you all.

God Restores, Thanks so much to the webmaster that corrected my mother's
birthdate on this sight!  As my mom would say sometimes little things can make a BIG difference. (SMILE) Especially removing the NMI (no middle initial)
was extremely comforting.       Sincerely, The Thomas Sisters,Marcia,Kammy& Via ...

"Momma" would be extremely proud of her girls for working together at a time like this (as she has taught you to do)  I am too.  She has prepared you for a time like this.

God bless you,

I miss being in the choirstand watching Mom rocking back-n-forth with her girls and praising the Lord while singing "Churchhouse".  My first service at Bayview Baptist Church was in the summer of 1977 in a little house on Skyline Dr.  There have been some incredible memories created since then; Sis. Thomas is one of them.

Marcia, Kammy and Via: My thoughts and prayers are with you this day as you say goodbye to your mother Leedoriest.  Although I have only recently come to know her and you I know that you loved and cared for each other and that has made an impact on me.  I know she will be missed but there will be someday a joyous reunion where there will be no more tears.  God bless all of you.

My deepest heartfelt condolences are far out to all of you at this time. I know too well your grief losing my dad this year. I have and will continue to pray for your strength, acceptance and serenity in knowing that Mrs. Thomas's mission has been completed and her reward has been recieved.

Gerald X Lee....Markham Il.

You have my deedest symphathy.  Hope to hear from all of you soon.

Patricia, Konard, and Tony.

Sister Kammy, Marcia and Via, Sister Thomas was a jazzy, kind, sweet and lovely lady, a precious gem whom everyone loved and felt loved in her presence. It was a blessing to serve with her in the Music Ministry. She will be dearly missed. 

Continue to trust in GOD during your time of sorrow and joy. She resting with our Heavenly Father. Please do not hesistate to call for whatever need. 

My prayers are with you and your family.

Love and GOD Bless

Kammy, Via and Marcia ... Sending love to you today and always. You are in my prayers ... I also am sending a big THANK YOU to your mother ... one of my Markham Mamas ... always providing me with love, guidance, laughs and fun. Her style, her sweetness, her heart and her guidance and wisdom were and still are huge gifts ... and in YOU all ... she lives on and will continue to love you eternally.

Once again. I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Your Mom was a great lady and I will begin plans to be there.

I like to believe that when we lose someone close to us they still live through us and give us strength. The time we have spent with those we've lost makes them part of us. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Mr. & Mrs. Bryan & Charisse Lee (San Deigo,CA)

To my Sisters,
Yes, Mom was part of that Honore Street tribe that helped raise me. In fact she was the sharpest, sassiest, cutest lil Mom in the bunch. I always admired the closeness shared between you all and the wisdom she so readily shared with all her "other children". Please know you remain in the heart, thoughts and prayers of my entire family. Although, she is now,"absent from the flesh, she is forever present with the Lord". The best she had to give, she left behind.

"Marcia, Kammy and Via, I just want to let you know how very sorry I was to hear about your mom.  She was a wonderful lady, and it was a blessing to have known her while you guys were living in Markham.  Know that I am praying for ALL of you, and take comfort in knowing she is now with your dad in heaven."  Love you, Dede Anderson (Chicago, IL)

"I wish that "I" could be there in person ....you are ALL in my thoughts today.  Know you are loved, and that I loved your mom as well. I take comfort in knowing she is with your dad in heaven.  I am here if you need me."  Love you, Dede Anderson (Chicago, IL)

Marcia, Kammy and Via, my thoughts and prayers are with all of you and the entire family. We know we loved Mom, but God loved her more. Now she is singing with the heavenly choir.
