Cara Crosby Thomas

Mrs. Cara Crosby Thomas, age 45, of Ehrhardt, entered into rest Thursday, December 16, 2021, at her residence following and long and victorious eight-year battle against colon cancer.

Born August 27, 1976, in Orangeburg, South Carolina, she was a daughter of Ricky and Cheryl Bennett Crosby. For nearly twenty-five years, she has worked faithfully with Enterprise Bank of South Carolina having served as Operations Manager at their Ehrhardt Branch. Cara believed that nothing could cripple love, nothing could shatter her hope, and nothing would conquer her spirit because she knew Christ as her Savior. She was a faithful member of Edisto Baptist Church where she served as the youth Sunday school teacher for fourteen years and had been the director of the church's Vacation Bible School for many years. Family was paramount in her life and she lived her life to the fullest. She devoted herself entirely to her family and always centered her life around those she dearly loved. She will always be remembered for her joy in camping.

Cara is also survived by a large host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and extended family.
