In 1956 Thelma married Warren Foreman and the two of them built a wonderful life together for 61 years.
Thelma is remembered as a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, and friend to many. She loved the Lord. She was a ray of sunshine to many and our "Queen Bee."
Thelma is survived by her husband, Warren Foreman; four children, Alvin Foreman, Michael Foreman, Dawn Brown, and Rebecca Foreman; three grandchildren, Jennifer Byrd, Erica White, and Jarrett Foreman; three great-grandchildren, Samantha and Emma Byrd, and Ezekial White; two sisters, Tink Russell and Myrtle DeBruhl; and one brother, Mack Rice.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Levi and Lillie Rice; sister, Lois Wetherington; and brother, James Rice.
A memorial service will be held at 11:00 am on Monday, March 26, 2018 at Spring Garden Baptist Church in New Bern where she was a devoted member for over 70 years. The family will receive friends from 10:00 to 11:00 am in the sanctuary.
