Robert Lee Thomas Sr.

Our beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, and dear friend, Robert Lee Thomas Sr., entered eternal rest on the November 2, 2024 in San Antonio, Texas. He was 80 years of age. Robert was born in Bay City, Texas on September 10, 1944 to the late parents: John and Evalina Thomas.

Robert met and married the love of his life, Eva Sullivan, and the two shared a beautiful union of 28 years together. He was an amazing man; very kind and very loving.

He would always look forward to spending time with family, watching an exciting Dallas Cowboys game, and traveling to his hometown, Bay City.

Robert was also a hard worker, and great provider. He spent many years working as a maintenance man for Fort Houston Golf Course, retiring after 39 years of service. Robert’s absence is deeply felt and his presence will be deeply missed.

Robert was greeted in heaven by his parents.

He leaves to cherish in his memory, his beloved wife: Eva Thomas, children: Rhonda Faye Presley, Doris Renea Smallwood (David), Robert Thomas Jr., Charles D. Sullivan (Dannette), and Shenik Wolford; 12 grandchildren, 19 great-grandchildren, all whom affectionately called him “Papa,” his brother: Thomas Holt; his favorite cousins: Jimmie and Timothy Taylor; and numerous other close relatives and friends.
