David Thomas was born in Cresco, Iowa on April 14, 1934 to William and Ruth Thomas. Due to complications at birth David was limited, but in 1976 new opportunities opened for him. He moved to Elgin, Texas where he made his home near his sister Dolores and Arbie Johnson and their family. David soon had employment, and over the next many years, he won the respect and admiration of those with whom he worked. His final years were spent working for his nephews Brent and Jay Johnson at their manufacturing business in Elgin.
On Monday, November 16, 2009, David suffered a massive heart attack and he died on Friday, November 20. David truly believed that one day he would be with God in heaven. His faith was simple but profound.
He will truly be missed by his many friends as well as Dolores and Arbie; Lede and John Doba; Brent and Patsy Johnson; Sarah and Hunter; and Jay and Heather Johnson, Colby and Jake.
Funeral services were held Monday, November 23, 2009 at Jones Family Funeral Home in Elgin. Graveside services will be 11 a.m. Tuesday, December 1, 2009 at Pleasant Hill Cemetery in Lime Springs, Iowa.
