Mrs. Thomas was a member of New Bethel Church, and she loved her family very much. She was very fond of her five grandchildren as they were growing up, and excited when great-grandchildren came along. Anyone who knew her knew they were just the “apple of her eye”! she was affectionately known as “Mamaw Sue” and “Sue-Sue”. And her great-grand’s loved her too. She loved helping other people and enjoyed making quilts. Our mother was the hardest working woman everyone knew. She will be greatly missed by her loving family and friends.
