Georgia May Thomas

Georgia May Thomas, a cherished soul known affectionately as Georgia to her friends and family, passed away peacefully on November 14, 2025, in Enterprise, Alabama. Born on May 2, 1930, in Oklahoma, Georgia's life was a testament to the power of love, resilience, and the beauty of nurturing both people and nature.

Georgia's journey began as the daughter of Jesse James Stamps, and from her early days, she was a beacon of kindness and creativity. Her life was one of both service and devotion; she proudly served in the Army for two years, where she met her beloved husband, Charles Everett Thomas. Together, they embarked on a life filled with adventure and commitment, as Georgia supported Charles through his 30-year military career, creating a loving home wherever they were called.

The couple was blessed with a large and loving family. Georgia is survived by her son, Brian Thomas (Teri), daughters, Cheryl Thomley, Carol Elaine Ellis, and Karen Wilkerson (Skip). Her legacy continues to bloom through her eight grandchildren and many great-grandchildren, each of whom she adored. Georgia's nurturing spirit lives on in her one surviving sister, who along with the rest of the family, will miss her dearly. She was preceded in death by her husband, Charles, after 61 years of marriage, her son, Charles Everett Thomas, Jr., her son-in-law, Larry Ellis, her parents, Jesse James Stamps, four brothers, one sister, and three stepsisters.

Upon retiring in Daleville, Alabama, Georgia's creative spirit found joy in the simple pleasures of life. She possessed a remarkable green thumb, able to grow anything she put her mind to. Her gardens were of many colors, reflecting her love for gardening and flowers. Georgia's hands were rarely still, as she expressed her creativity through crocheting and quilting, crafting beautiful pieces that became treasured family heirlooms.

Georgia was the embodiment of kindness. Her warm, gentle nature made her a friend to all, and her creative talents brought beauty into the lives of those around her. She was a woman who planted seeds of love and watched them grow, nurturing her family, her garden, and her community with equal passion.

A graveside service will be held on Monday, November 24, 2025, at 2pm in the Sunset Memorial Park Cemetery with Pastor Paul Alexander officiating.
