fought battle with cancer.

throughout his life he repaired and maintained relationships for future generations.
Thomas was preceded in death by his parents, Edward Aloyious White and Helen Sadie White, as well as
his wife, Mary Malinda White.
Thomas is survived by his daughter Yavonna (Chris) Hannigan; stepson James (Anya) Gnoffo;
stepdaughters Dana Floyd and Jenna Nelson; grandchildren Zachary, Kennedi, Kaylie, Itali, McKenzie,
