Thomas was born in Bryan, TX to Jacob and Vanee Robinson. He arrived in Anchorage in 1949 with his family after driving the Alcan.

A longtime member the Greater Friendship Baptist Church, Thomas was an avid fisherman. He enjoyed camping, hiking and spending time at his cabin. He loved to play pool, all types of music and singing and especially treasured the time he spent with his grandsons.

Thomas will be remembered by his wife Julie: daughters Chelsea and her husband Jon, Breanna and her husband Russell and Margaret: grandsons, Dylan, Nolan, Tiernan and Dominik: siblings Curtis (D'Etta), Melvin (Audrey), Verna (Tyrone), Anthony Polk (Rose) and sister-in-law Carlotta, and many nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by his brother Will and George, his parents, and great friend Chet Courville.

A visitation will be held on Friday March 27, 2026, 1pm -2pm at Greater Friendship Baptist Church 903 E 13th Ave Anchorage, Alaska followed by a service. Michael Bunton will preside. A Repass will follow the funeral from 3:15 – 5:30 in the Ann Stevens Room/ Galleria at the Z.J. Loussac Library.
