OBITUARY 
WHEN A LOVED ONE HAS DIED 
The light of life goes out of him. He 
cannot speak to us nor we to him. He is gone 
and we are left stunned and heartbroken. And 
emptiness and loneliness comes into our 
hearts. We broken-heartedly say, 'That one 
whom we loved is dead". It is such a cold, 
hopeless thing to realize. 
Mr. Willie T. Thomas, who resided at 821 
Hopkins Street, passed away in the Veteran 
Administration Medical Center on October 8, 
1986. He was bom 1915. He has lived in 
Augusta all of his life. 
He received his elemental Education from 
the Second Ward School; High School - Haines 
Institute (Now, Lucy C. Laney); College de- 
grees from paine College; Master Degrees from 
Atlanta University and Columbia University. 
After teaching 38 years in Richmond 
County, he retired. 
Mr. Thomas was a member of the Macedonia 
Baptist Church over 50 years. He was a member 
of the Church-Wide Choir (The Sr. Choir). 
He married the Miss Juanita Lawrence. 
He leaves to mourn his passing, a host 
of loving friends and co-workers. 
This earth is only a dressing room for 
all of us. Let's becareful what we put on. 
We all must passed this same way, soon or 
later. 
"God is our refuge and strength, a very pre- 
sent help in trouble". 
(Psalm 46:1)
