Thelma was known for her kind and gentle nature. She had a remarkable talent for crocheting and crafting, using her skills to create beautiful handmade gifts for her family and friends.

She found immense joy in the presence of her grandchildren, and she cherished the precious moments spent together. Whether it was sharing laughter, telling stories, or teaching them new crafts, she delighted in their company and made countless cherished memories that will forever live on in their hearts.

In addition to her parents, she was also preceded in death by a brother, Raymond McCall, and daughter-in-law, Lucy Mehaffey.
