Ms Dot, Chico, Nana although i saw you all when i flew in for Roper's funeral i just had to stop by and sign the book... He was truly my brother and the only person other than family who kept in touch with me... We spoke so often it felt like i was still in Charleston and the last time i actually called CHS home was in 1984..I know you guys know what he meant to me so i don't have to say it and i'm sure he's smiling down on myself and Chico..The bond that she and i have formed over the last couple of weeks is so beautiful.. And Just like Roper did until his passing..she now checks on me and i'm doing the same with her.. God bless your family, They all embraced me and treated me like i was one their own doing my stay..

My condolences to the Roper family:
I was shocked and saddened to hear of Thomas's passing. I had the pleasure of meeting him on the job in 99'.He was sharp in appearance. Fresh haircut,clothes matched to a tee, and shoes that shined. He had a winning personality and that smile to match! Though I hadn't seen him in a couple of years he will always be unforgettable to me. We will all hold our memories of him even closer. Your in my prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Though only knowing Thomas a limited time, he made a lasting impression. I truly enjoyed the brief time I spent with him during his physical therapy sessions. His smile and laugh could light up the gym.

November 11, 2008
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
