Thomas Thomas Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Tasker Funeral Home - Dover on Jan. 10, 2026.
Thomas Raymond Thomas passed away peacefully on Tuesday, January 6, 2026, at Dover Rehabilitation. He was born on March 10, 1943, and was the beloved son of the late Raymond and Sarah (Silverman) Thomas, who adopted him and his brother at a young age.
Tom was a private man, known for his strong work ethic and steady presence. He spent more than 50 years as a truck driver, dedicating his life to the open road. Known by his handle "Bingo," he took pride in his work and the independence that came with it. Away from the road, Tom enjoyed reading and quiet moments of reflection.
In retirement, Tom found his greatest joy in reconnecting with family. He cherished time spent with loved ones and truly adored being surrounded by them.
Tom proudly served his country in the United States Air Force as an Airman Second Class.
He was predeceased by his parents and his brother, Floyd Thomas.
He is survived by his loving wife, Linda Thomas; his children, Raymond Thomas and his wife Debi of Haverhill, Massachusetts, Sarah Thomas and her wife Heidi of California, Tracy Willaman and her husband Todd of Somersworth, Becky Thomas and her wife Lynda of California, Sean Jackson and his wife Heather of Lebanon, Maine, Rene Pollard and her husband Daryl, William Thomas of Washington, Brad Russell and his wife Jamie of Fremont, New Hampshire, and Rick Mackey; his sister, Ann Thomas; along with many grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
