Obituary of Thomas N. Thomas
Thomas N. “Papa” Thomas, 71, of Snyders Corner Rd., Wynantskill, peacefully passed away surrounded by his family at home on Tuesday, July 16, 2024.
Born in Troy, New York, he was the son of Florence Thomas and the late John Joseph Thomas. Tom was a graduate of Lansingburgh High School.
Tom retired from Troy Housing Authority, where he was an inspector, but most will remember him fondly from Thomas’ Tavern. Thomas’ had been operated by 2 generations of the Thomas family, but closed in 1995. Of all his roles in life, being a grandfather brought him the greatest joy. His grandchildren were the light of his life. His circle of friends were more than just friends; they were family, sharing in both joys and challenges.

Dear brother of Sandra (David) Dunham, and John Joseph Thomas Jr. Cherished grandfather of Riyana Miller, Landen Valentine and Avery Valentine. Also survived by several nieces and nephews and their families.
Papa, you were our rock, our guide, and our greatest source of joy. Your love and kindness has left an indelible mark on all of us. We will miss you dearly, but take comfort in knowing that you are now at peace.
Papa's legacy of respect, love and friendship will continue to live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know him.
