View Funeral Home. Huntington Texas (From KTRE.com) - Apparent Drowning
We
now know the name of a man whose body washed ashore just south of Huntington on the banks of the Neches River yesterday.
Authorities believe Donald Ike Hilton, of New Caney, died while out on a fishing trip. His neighbors went to look for him
after they noticed he had not returned. Hilton was staying at his cabin near the river, and neighbors told Sheriff's Deputies
that the 63 year old man was in poor health. He had been found unconscious at his cabin on previous occasions. So it is unknown
at this time if he actually died from drowning, or from other complications related to his health. Donald Hilton's death
is being ruled an accident, and according to investigators, no autopsy will be performed. Thelma Helen Holt Savage - 05/27/00

Glenda Merle
Yandell Thomas - 1/19/2010
Glenda Merle Yandell Thomas, 69 years old, passed away from an illness
on January 19, 2010 in Austin. Glenda was born on September 8, 1940 in Coal Hill, Arkansas to Woodrow Wilson Yandell and Nina
Merle McCarley Yandell. She grew up in Highlands, Texas and graduated valedictorian from Robert E. Lee High School in Baytown,
Texas. She went to Howard Payne University where she met Larry Thomas. They were married September 1, 1961. She graduated
magna cum laude with degrees in English and elementary education in 1962. They moved to Austin in 1964. She worked as a kindergarten
teacher for several years. She also served at the Baptist Student Union (now known as Baptist Student Ministries) at the University
of Texas. She was a long-time member of Congress Avenue Baptist Church. Her passion was for her Lord and her family. In her
younger years, she was the neighborhood “mom” and her home was always filled with children and teenagers. When
grandchildren came along she said, “I found a place in my heart for love that I didn’t know I had.” In her
later years, her ministry was powerful prayers for the needs of others.
Glenda personified the attributes noted in Proverbs
31: “She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. She speaks with wisdom, and faithful
instruction is on her tongue. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: ‘Many women
do noble things, but you surpass them all.’ Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord
is to be praised. Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise.”
She is survived by her
husband, Larry Thomas, of Austin; her son, Stephen Thomas, M.D, wife Thea, and their children Max and Sophia, of Charleston,
South Carolina; her daughter, Lara Newcomer, M.A. and husband Adam, their children Joshua, Hannah, and Sarah, of Austin; and
