February 25, 1957 - August 8, 2023
Valerie Ann Thome (66), born 2-25-1957, left us 8-8-2023. Our momma loved to fish and was the queen of throwing horseshoes. She loved poker, bingo, and casinos almost as much as she loved her girls, grandkids and great- grandkids, and her trips with her sisters!
To say she is going to be missed is an understatement. Those who knew her couldn't help but love her. She was fun, outgoing and had no filter. Her personality and strength was amazing, she was everyone's rock and glue.
She has now joined her family that has gone before her, mom and dad (Jack and Dorris Smith); beautiful daughter, Toni Messer; 2 grandsons, Christopher James and Corey Wiley; her fiancé, Calvin Stiffler; brother, Jack Smith Jr., and brother-in-law, Bill Cresswell.
Those left here to miss her, 3 beautiful daughters that she loved whole heartedly, Billi Jo Dodson, Staci Thome, and Jenni (Cliff) Harrison; 12 grandkids, Haley, DaShawn, Jaden, Zachary, Chloe, Hannah, Clayton, Joseph, Madison, Drake, Kevin Jr., and Wyatt; her great grandkids, Tatum, Luca, and Cole; her sisters, Vick, Candy, Teena, and Christy, brother, John; cousin, Michelle and her aunt Joyce.
Her family will have a celebration later and all that loved her may attend.

My sister I will always love and miss you. When we were kids we were each other partner in whatever we done two peas in a pod. My heart is aching so bad I know we lived a ways away from each other but we always talked to each other and our girls trips we had so much fun we talked about everything we laughed so hard we would cry or start to pee our pants it will never be the same. Please tell Mom and dad,Jack,bill toni and Calvin I said hi and I miss and love them with all my 💜â¤ï¸ðŸ’œâ¤ï¸

MOM you will be missed greatly, I can't believe I messed around and let this much time pass before I could get back there and visit you. I'm pissed at myself for not sitting down with you and reminise about all the crazy and good times we all have had over these years. I'm sorry I procrastinate so much. Please tell Calvin I said what's up and I hope I get to see you again when it's my time to leave this world.LOVE YA. Bob.....

Aunt Val you will be missed by my family. We are sorry you had to go so soon but know that you are no longer in pain. Fly high and keep everyone up there in line. You definitely knew how to tell someone like it was but still love them with all you had. Love you and keep you in our hearts.

When I was a kid I was always told that I didn’t know a stranger, well that’s Memaw for you, she didn’t know a stranger; because everyone who met her, loved her. She was a fun loving woman and a great fisherman who taught me a lot. Memaw didn’t know how to hate, she only knew love and loved us all (me the most though ;) she was a gift that you didn’t wanna miss out on. I’ll miss you the most, memes

I cannot hardly believe you are gone. I am just numb. I am going to miss our talks and our texts just to say good morning beautiful. You always made me smile or sometimes laugh so much I cried.
I am crying now because I have a huge whole in my heart. Our sister trips are never going to be the same. I love you sissy and I miss you. I still can't believe you are gone. Give Mom, Dad, Jack and the rest of the family a big hug for me. Love you.

Wish I could be there in person, but know that I'm sending my love to you all! Mere words could never express who Valerie was to me, or how she will be missed. She was truly one of a kind, and I cherish the time I spent with her.

Val...your absence has left a huge hole inside me. You have been the best of the best Girlfriend! I love you more than you know. You have taught me so very much. God loaned us such a precious gift. The loan has been return to heaven. I can just imagine the gates of Heaven open and in welcome of your arrival. I know the angels were singing. You will be missed more than anyone knows. The promises we made to each other as best friends will be honored as promised! I love you My Bestie!
