Expanding further, he formed the Thibault Group, in Hartford CT, a commercial interior construction company that operated throughout New England.

He enjoyed playing the piano/organ, playing and watching tennis, and boating on the Connecticut River. He was predeceased by his parents, his wife, Linda Brown, brother, Louis (Sharon Baraby), and sisters Dorothy (Leroy Underwood) and Marjorie (Charles Merlini) and two nieces. He is survived by his sister, Rosanne (Hugh Putnam), two nieces and a nephew and his good friend, Rosalie Zimmermann.
