Passing of Bill Thomas, Sr.
By Bobbie McCreary

Friday PM
To all Bill's friends and family, we feel the sorrow of losing
such a vital community member. At the same time we celebrate
what he was able to contribute to our community during his time
here. I did not know him as long as many of you...but with certainty
I knew he would show up when needed and you would find him actively
participating at any meeting that had youth issues as its topic.
I am sure he made a significant impact on many young lives.
With fondness I will long remember his role in a Future Search
Scenario as the "bus driver" enjoying our pothole-free
roads, he was also a great actor! (This was during the Youth
Future Search conference entitled "Making Ketchikan a Great
Place to Live and Come Back to")
Let us continue his work, in his memory.
