The funeral service for Clarence “Pop” Thomas will be conducted at 11:00 A.M., Saturday, February 21, 2015 at Magnolia Baptist Church, 415 Hosie Waters Street, Montezuma, Georgia, where Reverend Hosie Waters is pastor.  Reverend Coley Clark, Jr., pastor of Zion Grove Baptist Church, will officiate. Interment will follow in Champ Waters Cemetery, Twin Church Road, Montezuma, Georgia.

A Time to Be Born
My life began February 19, 1924. I was born to the late Mary Lee McClendon and Tom Thomas in Dooly County, GA. I was raised on a farm by my grandparents, the late Levi and Henrietta McClendon. As a young child, my grandparents instilled in me the importance of trusting in the Lord. They exemplified what it meant to be committed to family; and I strived every day to show this same level of commitment to my own family.

At an early age, I accepted Christ as my personal savior. I joined Zion Grove Baptist Church where in 1966 I became an ordained Deacon. Any one will tell you that I love the Lord and Zion Grove Baptist Church where I later became Chairman of the Deacon Board.

In 1942, I married the late Ossie Lee Tookes Thomas. From this union, there were 6 children: Mattie, Willie, Olivia, Mary, Joe and Gloria. After many years of dedication, I retired from Robins Air Force Base. For several years, my children and I owned and operated Thomas and Children (T&C) Family Restaurant of Montezuma, GA.

Later, I joined hands in marriage to Rosa Lee Hobes Thomas and from this union I inherited six more children: Rosa, Albert, Willie, James, Debra, and Ronnie. My strongest desire has always been that my family would stick together and take care of each other and so far, they have done an awesome job.

A Time to Die
In accordance with God’s plan, on February 14, 2015 my earthly life ended and my heavenly life began. As I transitioned, I was surrounded by my family. I can assure you, I have lived a blessed life. I have fought a good fight, I have finished the race, and I have kept the faith. For me, there are no more nights that will turn into days, but I live on in the hearts of each of you.

I leave a legacy of golden memories to my wife Rosa Hobes Thomas, Montezuma, GA, my devoted children: Mattie Walters (Greene, deceased), Akron, OH, Willie Thomas (Louise, deceased), Montezuma, GA, Olivia Cochran (Eddie, Sr.), Montezuma, GA, Mary Davis (Bobby), Montezuma, GA, Joe Thomas (Helen), Oglethorpe, GA, Gloria Thomas, Montezuma, GA, Willie D. Hobes (Mattie), Greensboro, GA, Rosa Hobes Fox, Washington D.C., Albert Hobes (Lanett) Buffalo, NY, James Hobes Jr., Debra Hobes, and Ronnie Hobes all of Montezuma, GA, 37 grandchildren, 26 great grandchildren and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Johnny Thompson, age 59, 78 Daniel Drive, Buena Vista, Georgia passed Saturday, January 31, 2015 at Saint Francis Hospital, Columbus, Georgia

The funeral service will be conducted at 2:00 P.M., Sunday, February 8, 2015 at Brown Chapel A.M.E. Church, Pineville Road, Buena Vista, Georgia.  Interment will follow in Mt. Zion Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery.

Johnny Thompson was born on June 19, 1955 to the parentage of the late George and Virginia Golden Thompson, third among the six children.  When he was around, though he never said much, he would often smile and laugh, bringing joy and happiness to the conversation.  His devotion to family became evident at an early age when both parents passed away.  His grandparents, Julia “Aunt Julia” Golden Raymond and Felton “Uncle Felton” Raymond (both deceased), accepted responsibility to care for their grandchildren.
 
Being one of the oldest, Johnny, along with his older brother, Willie “Bud” Thompson (deceased), and older sister, Gerry, shared responsibility to care for the three younger siblings: Ed, Nell, and Bo.  He did not take his responsibly lightly; he began working odd jobs on farms to help provide for the family.  He never seemed to regret his decision to help make things just a little better for his grandparents and siblings.
 
Johnny attended Marion County public schools.  Following his formal education, he worked for many years in the pulpwood and manufactured housing industries.  Johnny was well known as a hard worker and for being on-time, though he never possessed a driver’s license.  He was not one to make excuses or ask for much help.  Even if his ride didn’t come on time, he would start walking to work, regardless of how far it was.  Then, after a long hard work day, he started walking from town to home, even if no one offered him a ride.  That’s what you call a “dedicated man”.
 
Johnny leaves to honor and cherish his memory: four siblings, Geraldine “Gerry” Daniel (the late Arthur) of Buena Vista, Georgia; Edward “Ed” (Merlene) Thompson of Monroe, North Carolina; Vanilla “Nell” Thompson of Charlotte, North Carolina, and Rayford “Bo” Thompson, Sr. also of Buena Vista, Georgia; three nieces, six nephews, two great nieces, and one great great nephew, along with a host of cousins, neighbors and friends.
