    I have such sweet memories of Thelma and her love to teach the children in our Vacation Bible School for several years that we worked together! She was such a asset to our Church! She has been so missed during her illness and will always be missed in our Church! RIP Miss Thelma!

    Our much love and expression of sympathy to the entire Ford family in the passing of our very sweet friend these many years. We met through our daughter, Terri, and their son, Michael, which resulted in our earning a wonderful son-in-law. Thank you, Thelma for being a wonderful mom-in-law to our daughter. Thelma has now reached the pinnacle of her life and waiting with open arms to see her family again in God's precious timing.
