I was thinking about Thurman & Paula today. 12/20/23,as I did everyday. They use go into my Dad's Auto Parts off High St, come to our house for cook outs,lake,etc.... with my Dad,Mom,Brother,Vince,Bubba,& I. Something just told me to look this up,and I am so sorry for the loss of Thurman. He was like an Uncle to me. We would always go to the apartments and cook out,do Paula's hair,etc. I have so memories of them. Rip,Unc Thurman. He was family to us through so many years!!! "All of them are together again"!!! 🕊️️🕊️️
Last night I looked at the clock and thought how has it been a week since Unk left this world. It gave me peace knowing that he was a saved man and in heaven for him it only felt like minutes. Knowing him you knew his passion for his family and friends in that he loved everyone big. Although my heart is completely broken it makes my heart so happy that he was surround by his family during the last moments of his life, hearing how much we loved him, and he did not pass alone. It was a complete privilege to be there to tell him thank you and I love him for being what we lovingly simply called him as Unk. In those three little letters contain a lifetime of memories and love. Until we meet again Unk I will forever cherish my sweet memories of you ❤️ fly high you definitely were a Freebird!
Fly High Uncle Thurman. You are going to missed by so many family member and friends. I know you are happy to with your mom and dad again. I love you and miss you.
I remember Thurman as a happy go lucky guy that always had a smile on his face and an infectious laugh. He lived life and enjoyed life. I never met a person who did not like him. He was my friend and I am heartbroken. I loved him like a brother. We will all miss him. My sincerest condolences to his family. I will keep y'all in my prayers.
My thoughts and prayers to Thurman’s family.
May the Lord bless you all and give you strength through this difficult time. Just know that he is now at peace.
Thurman you were a very dear friend to anyone you met there was only 1 Thurman in the whole world and we love and you will be missed dearly
