Momma Fomby taught us this poem and made us recite it in 10th grade English class. I have been able to do so the past 25 years.. She was a great educator and a great women. My condolences to the family.

“So live, that when thy summons comes to join The innumerable caravan which moves
To that mysterious realm where each shall take His/Her chamber in the silent halls of death, Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night, Scourged to his/her dungeon; but, sustained and soothed
By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave, like one who wraps the drapery of his/her couch about him/her, and lies down to pleasant dreams.”
Thanatopsis”

I would like to offer my sincere condolences to the family and will keep you all in my prayers and thoughts as you go through this transition. She will be missed but never forgotten.

Sending prayer, hugs and much love your way this day.

Condolence from Anita Peaks on February 27th, 2019 8:29 pm

Mrs. Fomby was a caring, loving Teacher, who treated her students as if we were her own children. She was a Teacher that cared about her students, getting good grades and having a good education. Mrs Fomby was always willing to help, whoever needed it. If she caught you in the halls after the bell rung, she would ask you, “where are you suppose to be, and do you have a hall pass”.
Mrs Fomby will be missed, but never forgotten.
On February 22, 2019. God looked down from Heaven and told Mrs. Fomby, it was time for her to go, her work here on earth had been completed, heaven is where she is needed. Rest peacefully Mrs.Fomby, you was and will forever be Loved, by Family, Friends and all your Students from Central High School!!!

Condolence from Natalie Brown on March 4th, 2019 5:50 pm

Just heard the news about Ms. Fomby’s passing. She taught my class at Central High School. She was always concerned about her students. She carried herself so gracefully, I learned so much by her example. I am so sorry for your loss. She made such a impact on myself and several others. Prayers of comfort for your family.

Condolence from Irish J. Richardson on March 19th, 2019 2:58 pm

To the Fomby family. My heart is with you and your family at this time of your loss. There is comfort in knowing God’s promises about the resurrection hope. (Acts 24:15) and (John 5:28,29) In the past God has resurrected humans and He is eager to do it again because He hates death. (Mark 5:41-43) To learn more about God’s promises go to JW.ORG. There are online Bible study lessons featured and more. Love Your Neighbor Irish J. Richardson
