OBITUARY
Mr. Thomas ONeal Nails was born in

life suddenly on Monday, February 17, 1997 at
Evans Memorial Hospital in Claxton, Georgia. He

At an early age Thomas joined Jesusalem

Ushers Board. He was also a member of St.

War II. He retired from Claxton Coca Bottling

Thomas will always be fondly remembered

Florida, Vicki Nails and Mary Ellen Wyatt, both of
Claxton, Ga., and Virginia Murphy of San Antonio,
Texas; one son, Carlos Nails of Atlanta, Ga.; eight

The clock of time is wound but once
And no man has the power;
To tell just when the hands will stop.
At late or early hour.
Sadly submitted;
