Christopher Todd Thomas
Born on February 3, 1975, to Selena Texie Reardon Thomas and the late Jerry Alvin Thomas, Christopher was a happy soul, always the smile in the room.
He followed in his family’s Apiary footsteps until later pursuing a career in painting. He often said that he was the best in the business, and proved it.
Christopher was a man of many words, a soft man at heart, but never let anyone see it. He would often tell you funny stories from his past or complain about what he had seen on the news.
He was a die-hard Kansas City Chiefs and Boston Celtics fan with a young dream of becoming the next Larry Byrd. He spent his time hunting and fishing, as well as spending time with family and friends.
He was preceded in death by his father, Jerry.
He is survived by his mother, Texie; brother, Kevin, and wife Traci; two children, Ethan and Kayla; three grandchildren; niece, Rebecca; nephew, Hayden; and several cousins and extended family members.
