SAUCIER - Larry Keith Thomas, age 57, and a resident of Saucier, passed away peacefully at his home on Saturday, April 27, 2002  from complications of cancer.

He was born on December 10, 1944 in Whiteland, Indiana and had been a lifelong resident of the Mississippi Gulf Coast. 

Mr. Thomas graduated from Long Beach High School, Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, and received his bachelor's degree from the University of Southern Mississippi. 

Larry will no doubt be missed terribly, but we, as believers in Christ, know that today he will be with Christ in Heaven. 

He leaves behind a loving family of his wife, Mary C. Thomas; his father and mother, Ernest and Helen Thomas; a son, Scott K. Thomas; two sisters and their husbands, Betty and Fred Cesnik, and Margaret and Ted Badurak, numerous nieces and nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, a brother-in-law, Mike Slivka, and a sister-in-law Phyllis Slivka. 

Thank you to our co-workers, friends, and especially, to our Church family. All of your concern, help, and prayers will never be forgotten.
