    Thomas Howard Cleveland

    August 4, 1940 - May 30, 2020

    Thomas Howard Cleveland began his life on August 4, 1940. He was born to the late Reverend Willis Stephen and Lavata Jett-Cleveland in Austin, Texas. Both parents preceded him in death. He accepted Christ at an early age at David Chapel Missionary Baptist Church under the late Reverend Dawson. Thomas attended local schools in Austin, and graduated from L.C. Anderson High School, where he was a member of the track team and won numerous medals and awards. Thomas was united in holy matrimony to his best friend and loving partner, Louise Aldridge on February 24, 1961, and she remained his loving wife for 44 years. Thomas was a devoted husband and a loving and trusted friend. His quiet spirit will be missed by all that knew and loved him. He leaves to cherish his memories many nieces and nephews, cousins and friends. He was preceded in death by his sisters, Willie Beatrice Cleveland-Pearson, Alma Jean Cleveland-Thomas and Annie Marie Cleveland-Washington; brothers, Leroy Wilbert Cleveland; Charles Cleveland (Vernette); Reverend J.D. (Sallie); A.C. (Addie), all of Austin, TX.
