Our precious little angel, Karleythora Wanda Thomas, passed away on November 27, 2025, at the age of 4.

Karleythora was born in Yuma, Arizona, on September 27, 2021, to her loving parents, Ingrid Twist and Robert Thomas Jr. of Somerton, Arizona. She was an active, talkative, and joyful little girl who loved asking a thousand questions—how things worked, how she could help, or simply making sure you were okay.

Even at such a young age, she had a remarkably big heart. She adored making tortillas with her grandma, creating crafts and artwork, and playing with her brother and sisters. More than anything, she loved playing on her playset. She would often wake up eager to run outside and swing, sometimes spending hours there in the afternoons, smiling and soaring through the air. She cherished taking walks with her parents and enjoyed being outdoors every chance she could.

Karleythora is survived by her parents; her siblings Kylie R. Thomas, Robert G. Thomas, and Kyra L. Thomas; and her maternal grandmother, Wanda Twist.

She is preceded in death by her sister, Kateri L. Thomas; her maternal grandfather, Wesley G. Gutierrez; and her paternal grandparents, Linda Stevens and Robert Thomas Sr.

Pallbearers will include numerous family members and close friends.

"Swing high in the sky like Spiderman, babygirl—forever in our hearts."
