Marie Kimball Thomas, Who Spent Childhood Years in Bronxville, Dies August 21, 2015


By the Family


Sep. 9, 2015:  Marie Kimball Thomas, "Kim," 75, of Prince Frederick, Maryland, passed away on August 21, 2015, in Prince Frederick following a long battle with rheumatoid arthritis and related complications. She was surrounded by her husband and sons, who loved her deeply and will miss her dearly.

Kim is survived by her husband of 31 years, Neal Winston Thomas; sons, David R. Morgan and Brian C. Morgan and his wife, Claudia P. Morgan; and grandchildren, Russell P., Connor P., and Annabella P. Morgan; as well as Neal and Kim's devoted cocker spaniel companion, Heidi.

Kim was born on July 24, 1940, in Boston to the late Cynthia and Harmon Harris.

Her early years were spent primarily in Bronxville. After completing high school in Lausanne, Switzerland, she returned to Boston and graduated from Wheelock College in 1962 with a bachelor of science degree in education.

Kim cared deeply about children and had a full career as an early childhood educator spanning more than 25 years, including head teacher roles with St. Paul's Nursery & Day School in Alexandria, Virginia, and the Calverton School in Prince Frederick.

In retirement, she played an active role volunteering, from 1997, with the Calvert Memorial Hospital Auxiliary. She contributed over 3,000 hours to the auxiliary and served as its president from 2008 to 2010. She was also the chairperson for fundraising events, she led the project for the Calvert Memorial Hospital cookbook, and she was recently named the Volunteer Sunshine Girl.

A loving wife and proud mother fiercely devoted to her family, Kim was also a breast cancer survivor and a long-standing parishioner of Christ Church, Calvert County, Maryland.

She was a sweet and caring friend, thoughtful neighbor, dedicated volunteer, and gourmet cook, as well as an amazing human being and a true fighter. She will live on in the hearts and memories of those who knew and loved her. May she rest in peace.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, September 12, 2015, at 11:00 am at Christ Church, 3100 Broomes Island Road, Port Republic, Maryland. Arrangements are by Rausch Funeral Home in Port Republic.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to either Calvert Memorial Hospital Auxiliary, 100 Hospital Road, Prince Frederick, MD 20678 or Christ Church, 3100 Broomes Island Road, Port Republic, MD 20676.
