Mr. Rickey Thomas, age 64, passed away Friday, March 28, 2025 at his residence.
Rickey was born March 11, 1961 in Dublin, Georgia; he was preceded in death by his father, the late John Louis Thomas; a brother, Michael Louis Thomas and his grandparents, Jim & Beatrice Thomas and John & Mamie Williams.
Rickey was a master at many trades and wore several hats. His rough exterior hid the fact that he was nothing more than just a big teddy bear. He was loved by his family and many friends and he had a great love for his mother, kids, grandkids, sisters and his nieces and nephews.
He is survived by his mother, Bobbie Thomas of Cadwell; his children, Michelle (Oliver) Lowery of Rentz, Marsha Thomas of Rentz, Beth Mimbs of Cadwell and Patrick (Elaine) Mimbs of Cadwell; two sisters, Cassandra (Joe) Justice of Chester and Mary Dowdy of Cadwell; eight grandchildren, Michael Howell, Jada Howell, Lane Muchison, Dawson Murchison, Salina Murchison, Brantley Mimbs, Beckett Mimbs and Bennett Mimbs. He is also survived by several nieces, nephews and close friends.
