I first met LaFreeda when she introduced the Parish Nursing program to Craig Congregational Church in Paradise. Later I found out she was also a P.E.O. sister, and then she visited me as a hospital chaplain when I had surgery. What a privilege it was to claim her as a friend and sister in Christ! I extend heartfelt sympathy to Ron and their family. Lovingly, Margaret Knappen Shaw

Blessings & condolences to the Thomas Family during this difficult season. La Freeda was such a gifted & compassionate woman of God who had the ability to bring calm & tranquility to tense situations through her wise words & empathetic spirit. I remember her well at Feather River Hospital ministering to both patients & staff. She always made others feel as if they had her undivided attention. She was truly a wonderful role model of how a Christian should treat others, & when I think of La Freeda I think of the beatitude that says “Blessed are the peace makers for they shall be called children if God”.

Ron, I am so saddened by your loss. Yes, we have the incredible hope for our eternity with the Lord and all of us who belong to Him but the separation- oh my. I am praying for you. I loved her so much. We called ourselves salt and pepper - because of her dark hair and my white. I will always be grateful I got to know the two of you.

I was truly saddened to hear of LaFreeda Thomas’ passing. She is one of the finest and most joyful persons I have ever known.
I had the privilege of working at her side for about a year and a half at Oroville Hospital in the early “20 - teens”
LaFreeda, everyday when she awoke, brought the attributes of a loving God to life, giving comfort and calm to the people around her and those she met in her service as a chaplain.
I consider her a dear friend, a deeply spiritual and wise messenger of God’s word, and I personally benefited in my own spiritual growth because of her. There was not a patient nor patient’s family member that she overlooked in her ministry, living proof that God places angels’ wings on some of His most precious people, not to mention the comfort she gave medical staff in their care for the gravely sick and/or injured.
Humankind is the better for having had her among us and we all are diminished in her passing. Yet, she is still with us, and we give thanks for having her as part of our lives.
My sincere and deepest condolences to her family and loved ones.
Emmett Pogue, Lincoln CA, formerly of Oroville
