Thomas was always happy and enjoyed life. Heenjoyed dancing, listening to music, spending time with family and friends, telling stories and sharing memories. There was never a shortage of laughter when Thomas was around. Thomas enjoyed playing dominos with his family, knowing that their mission was to earn bragging rights by beating him. These times together created such wonderful memories in his children. Thomas enjoyed spending time at his best friend Dale’s garage. Dale was like a son to Thomas. Together they shared years of laughter and created many great stories.
Thomas loved talking on the phone to his brother and his Aunt Liz. He would share God’s word, talk football and discussing politics. Talking on the phone was a way for Thomas to keep up with his family that lived away.
Thomas loved hosting crawfish boils with everyone. Time together around the crawfish boiler meant so much to him. So many great memories and laughs were created. Not to mention that Thomas was a good sport when jokes were played on him.
