Thomas Cobb Obituary

Thomas Hart Cobb passed away on March 26, 2024, in Beaumont, Texas at the age of 55. Born on November 23, 1968, to Amelie Suberbielle Cobb and the Honorable Howell Cobb, Tom was raised in Beaumont, attended All Saints Episcopal School and Monsignor Kelly High School and graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University. After living in Washington, DC for several years, he returned to Beaumont where he lived until his passing.

Tom never met a stranger. With his beaming smile and big laugh, he was characterized by his dedication to others as a devoted and loyal friend. Tom could make a simple errand a hilarious adventure, sprinkled with laughter and a little silliness. But Tom's capacity for caring and empathy for others was immeasurable. His gentle soul made him a calming presence to those in a time of need, and he shared his love deeply and profoundly.

Tom's greatest joy was being a father, which gave meaning and definition to his life. His favorite pastime was traveling with his crew to natural places near and far, as often as they could trailblaze new adventures, big and small. He highly valued the concept of "childlike joy" and as such, was able to see the innate beauty in just about everything and everyone around him.

He is survived by his wife, Meghan Cobb, and his four children, Kate, Jackson, Georgia, and Tucker Cobb. Tom was blessed to have three stepchildren, Austin, Ava, and Luke. He is also survived by his mother, Amelie, and siblings, Catherine (David) Cook of Beaumont, Mary Ann (Ray) Walton of Fredericksburg, Caroline (Jimmy) Ervin of Washington, DC, and John (Monica) Cobb of Beaumont, and his sister-in-law Bonnie Cobb of Beaumont.

He is preceded in death by his father and by his brother, Howell Cobb III.

Tom was part of a large and loving family and was adored by his many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins.
