We would love to have you come out and share any memories and support. Below is a statement from Dena:

“Sadly, my beloved dad, Gary Thomas, Clover Park graduate, history teacher, and tennis coach, passed away in late September 2025. His big presence, deep voice, inquisitive thinking, and thoughtful guidance made a positive impact on many people. He is deeply missed. 

My mom (Helga Thomas), my sisters (Michelle and Kari), and I are planning a gathering to honor him. It will be held on Saturday, May 2nd, at the Lakewood Racquet and Sport Club, where he played numerous games of tennis and squash. People are invited to drop by anytime between 1 and 4pm to reminisce. Light refreshments will be available.”
