Following the 2016 death of our mom, Pat Thomas, the Thomas Family Scholarship Fund was established to honor her legacy of service to God, her Church, her family, her community, and to Quitman High School. For the past seven years, the Thomas Family has been awarding a one-time $1,000 scholarship to a graduating senior at Quitman High School. In addition, three grandchildren were awarded a one-time $1,000 legacy scholarship during this time as well.

The scholarship fund has awarded a total of $10,000 in scholarships to date, including this year’s recipient, Lily Kate Odom (previously announced). Our family considers it an honor to continue Mom’s legacy and be a small part of each recipient’s journey. Each has continued to excel not only in their education and career, but also in life. So, let’s catch up with our past recipients!
