Dean Thomas

(1/3) > >>

Jim T:
Early this afternoon Dean ended his three month struggle with lung cancer. Dean was my older brother by about 14 years. He should be remembered as a fine husband, father, brother, relic hunter, author, and publisher.  As far as this group goes, his life-time of collecting and ground breaking and extensive research regarding Civil War small arms resulted in "Ready, Aim, Fire, Small Arms Ammunition at Gettysburg", "Round Ball to Rimfire" (4 volumes), "Confederate Arsenals, Laboratories, and Ordnance Depots" (3 volumes) and numerous other reference works. Dean leaves a large void in the area of Civil War ordnance research!

Wac-a-mole!!!!

Dave:
Wow!  So sorry to hear that. Huge loss in the relic community, even bigger loss to your family. Will be praying for all of y?all.

redbob:
May he Rest in Peace and he will be missed in a number of areas.

Wilmington Mike:
Very sorry to hear this news.  Peace you and all the family and friends.

mgmradio:
Rest in Peace Dean.
