I first met Thelma at Whirlpool. I was a new hire in 1984, young and incredibly anxious about working for a major corporation. I went to the cafeteria to grab some lunch thinking I'd take it to my desk to eat. As I passed her table, she greeted me with a smile and invited me to join her! I did, and she quickly put me at ease. She told me she would love to have my company anytime I stayed in for lunch! I would scan the room and always saw the same sweet smile and friendly wave greeting me. When we started attending First Church in 1990, she was one of the first to welcome us! Please take comfort in knowing how many people will miss her kind and loving presence! She exuded grace and kindness and God's love to all. May your precious memories carry and comfort you as you grieve her loss and prepare to celebrate her life.

To Thelma’s beloved family, Please accept sympathy from my heart. I had the opportunity to work along side her at Whirlpool. Oh my stars, did we have fun. In my minds eye, I can still see her giggling. Most of all, her love for God shone through every day. What a shining example she set. Thankfully separation is temporary and there is the promise of heaven! I love that there is the promise of many mansions and there is no doubt that she will be right there ready to be reunited with you all some day. Praying for you all now, and in the time to come.. Love to you all, Loree Hocker
