Thomas mostly enjoyed spending time with his family and friends; he never met a stranger. He was well known for bringing joy and laughter while in the company of others. He worked hard to become self-educated so that he could provide for his family. He took pride in his abilities to operate heavy equipment and was known for getting the job done. He loved telling others about being daddy for 11 children. Many would say that his smile and loving, caring ways helped fill a void in their lives. His faith and leadership qualities inspired many to deepen their faith in Christ. He was a member of Friendswood Church of God in Houma, LA.

Thomas will be greatly missed by his family and friends.

The family extends special gratitude to the following for assisting with care for Thomas during his time of need: Haydel Hospice- Lisa, Eva, and the Medical Team, Ms. Ashley and Nancy Faucheaux.
