Ronald D. Thomas, 78, of Biloxi, passed away on Wednesday, December 24th, 2025 at his home surrounded by his family.
Ronald Thomas is preceded in death by his father Lawrence Thomas and mother Irene Evans Thomas, brother Dennis Wayne Thomas and his sister Margaret Ellen Thomas.

Ronnie enjoyed car racing (Jeff Gordon fan), loved the Atlanta Braves Baseball team, Saints football, and hunting with his friends and family. Ronnie's favorite thing to do was to sit on his front porch to feed his squirrels and red birds that came to visit him on a daily basis. Also he enjoyed every moment doing things with the other love of his life, his granddaughters.
