It is with a feeling of loss and  great sadness that we offer our condolences to the family of Mr. Jimmy Thomas (Brother Thomas). He was a dear friend and neighbor for many,  many years. He was kind and compassionate; always available with words of encouragement and a helping hand. His study of the Bible and God's instructions for life just served to further enhance his personality.  He will certainly be missed by all who knew and loved him.

So sorry to hear of the death of Jimmy. We go way back. We worked at  S H 
Kress together in Anniston in the 60’s . He taught me how to drive a car. We later worked for AT&T in Birmingham. He would give me rides home to Anniston sometimes when I missed my ride. He was a gentleman who will never be forgotten. RIP Jimmy.
