May Fitzgerald Thomas

May Fitzgerald Thomas, born February 18, 1913 in St. George Utah, to Frank and Fayme Laub Fitzgerald, returned to her Heavenly Father on March 19,2007. She grew up in Provo where she met and married Robert W. Thomas, July 5, 1934. She affectionately referred to him as "My Bob." He was the love of her life. They were sealed in the Logan Temple where they later served as ordinance workers. Theirs was a legacy of love and devotion to family and working hard together. His family was among the early settlers of Provo in 1851. May's sister, Elizabeth Morgan, and her brother, Ted Fitzgerald, preceded her in death.
May enjoyed the love of two children, Jenneane Boley and Robert F. Thomas, 9 grandchildren (Nancy Burgoyne, Marcie Whipple, Lori Zubeck, Jill Frost, Scott Thomas, Holley Aldred, Melanie Bullock, Ryan and Lindsay Thomas) and 23 great-grandchildren who adore her! She was a great source of encouragement and enjoyed musical programs, school programs and sporting events with them all. She was happiest when with those she loved so very much. She loved to travel and, with her husband, saw much of the United States. She loved gardening and grew breath-takingly beautiful flowers. She loved canning the fruits and vegetables she tenderly nurtured. She loved all of nature and could literally call birds from the trees to eat from her hand. She was an optimist in the truest sense of the word. She could find a patch of blue in the greyest sky.
May's service included work with cub scouts, hospital guild, BYU, PTA, at Geneva Steel and First Security Bank.
Our thanks to the many who so lovingly served her in her hours of need. Her sweet and generous countenance will continue on far past the time that she spent here on earth.
Funeral services will be held Saturday, March 24, at 10:30 a.m. in the Canyon View Stake Center, 675 East 800 North, Orem, under the direction of Allen-Hall Mortuary. There will be a viewing that morning from 9:00 - 10:00 a.m. Burial will be in the Provo City Cemetery. Condolences may be sent to the family at www.allenmortuaries.net .
