Marjorie Thomas Obituary

Marjorie Dickens Thomas, 73, of Lillington, NC, went to be with the LORD November 15th, 2024, after a short illness.

She was born on December 19th, 1950 to the late Mack Dickens and Stella Watkins Dickens, both of Lillington.

She grew up with her two older brothers, Mack Dickens and the late Roy Lee Dickens.
