There is a song we sing in our home church and it goes "may the work I've done speak for me". This song speaks for itself, Tommie was a hardworking, generous, kind and thoughtful man. May you find comfort and peace during this difficult time with your memories and knowing he is resting. Our prayers and thoughts are with you. Carolyn Kirkland

As Tommy and I walk around Fox Run, we are saddened by the passing of Mr. Daye, but comforted by all the pleasant memories we have of our kids and his growing up together, playing with all the neighborhood kids, school activities, and so many others. We will always cherish these memories and our conversations with Mr. Daye. Prayers for Mrs. Daye, the boys and their families and may God comfort you all during this difficult time. With our deepest sympathy and prayers, Bonnie and Tommy Carden.

When you understand the definition of a "good man" Mr. Daye will always come to mind. Mr. Daye dedicated his life to his family and was a great mentor to me. I will truly miss his words of encouragement and his "tough love". My condolences to Thomas Rayvon, Mrs. Daye and the rest of the family. Until I see you again, my friend.....Rest In Power.

Ashely and Family,

I am so very sorry for Mr. Daye's passing. Your dad was always a family man and showed nothing but respect to anyone he came across. I will remember those days with a smile. I will continue to pray for you and the family and hope that you all can find some peace during this extremely difficult time.

Love always, Kim

Ashley, really sorry to hear about your father. Always remember seeing him pass by the house in that truck on the way or coming home from cutting grass after working at the post office. He was a well respected man that set an example for all the other kids in the neighborhood too.

Kevin and Monica Latshaw

Ashley and family, I am so sorry to hear of your father's passing. I remember him from younger years as we all grew up together. Your dad was a wonderful man who loved his family very much. My parent's as well as my brother Kevin always thought very highly of him. Prayers to your mom and all of you during this difficult time. Love, Jennifer Coker (Aka: The Latshaw family)

I was so sorry to hear about the passing of Thomas. He would share eggs, homemade wine and walnuts with me. He even cut my grass whenever I called him for his service. Family, remember the good times you shared with your Thomas. I will keep you in my prayers. Shirley Wilkins, Peace Missionary Baptist Church

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
