    Roger Hubert Thomas Sr.

    February 25, 1942 - February 8, 2022

    Roger passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family on Monday, February 7, 2022, at the age of 79. He was born in Pearl River, Louisiana and resided in Springfield, Louisiana where he often could be found doing what he loved most, fishing with his loving wife, Cynthia, in the Natalbany River in his backyard. He adored his grandchildren and great-grandchildren and loved to spend time with them. Roger made a profession out of his hobby of rebuilding and reconstructing firearms as a gunsmith. He had the talent of creating a beautiful piece of art from old, worn-down guns that most would just throw away. Roger’s hard work and dedication was also committed over 40 years of tug boating. Within those 40 years, Roger, who started off with only one boat, successfully began his own Tugboat business, “Genesis Towing,” and worked alongside his son for 21 years. Roger was a one-of-a-kind man, who will truly be missed by all who knew and loved him. He is survived by children, Roger H. Thomas Jr. (Audrey), Theresa Thomas Lirette (David), and Pamela Thomas (Hades); brother, Phillip Thomas; grandchildren, Christina Thomas Vaughn (Eugene), Christopher Thomas, Brittany Lala, and Daniel Dubuisson (Brittni); great-grandchildren, Jenna Comeau and Gabriel Thomas and numerous nieces and nephews. Roger is preceded in death by his loving wife of 60 years, Cynthia Theresa Thomas; parents, George Thomas and Katherine Hein Pitre; siblings, Claude Thomas, Dale Thomas, Donald Thomas and Hope Mollier; and his precious grandson, Brandon Lala. Relatives and friends are invited to attend the visitation on Saturday, February 12, 2022, held in the chapel of Brandon G. Thompson Funeral Home, 1190 Hwy 51 North, Ponchatoula, beginning at 10:00 a.m. until the funeral service at 12:00 p.m. with interment to follow at Rose Memorial Cemetery.
