I am so sorry for your loss. Thomas was one of a kind. He was one of the few people I have ever met that within minutes of meeting him, he treated you like he’s known you his whole life. He will be missed. Prayers to you all.
I’m sorry we can’t be with you at this time, but know you all are in our prayers for peace and comfort. I’m sure Velma and Charles were waiting for him at heavens door!!
So sorry to hear that Mr. Thomas has passed away. I have some very fond memories of going to the farm with y’all when we were small. Praying for God’s comfort and peace during your time of sorrow. Bert Green
There was no finer man than Thomas Faison. He and wife Velma were wonderful people. Heaven has gained another angel.❤️❤️❤️
Faison Family, So sorry for your loss but what a wonderful long life he lived.
Great memories of playing cards with Mr. Thomas and my sister Wendy at the tobacco warehouse in Wendell. We never could win against him! Condolences to the Faison family.
