Heyward Family,

This message comes a while after the homegoing services, but that's when its most needed. Always keep The Faith. Remember, God won't place more on you than you can bear. She is in the best place she could ever be and we all should pray to get there one day. She's smiling down on all of you, so smile back at her. Keep great memories. Tonya, I met you through LaShaun, but it feels like I've known you for a lifetime. Keep going forward!! She's with you in spirit. MAY GOD BLEES YOU ALL!!!

To The Family:

Remembering Thomasena as one of my students at C.A. Brown High School, her aggressive "get the job done" attitude surfaced immediately. Over the years,on occasions when we met, she would share some things that she was doing or her future plans and a few of her desires.

I am confident that Thomasena completed the work that God designed for her. Therefore her task on earth is done. Be assured that God makes no mistakes.

I celebrate her "Home Going" with you.
