I never met Thomas, but would like to send my sincere condolences to his family and friends. May you find some comfort in God’s promise of paradise where there will be no more pain, suffering, or even death. (Revelation 21:4). Please know that our loving creator, Jehovah God, is always there to bring you comfort during this difficult time. (2 Corinthians 1:3,4).        (JW.ORG)
