Tiburon,  I still can't believe this is real. Even seeing your name attached to an obituary makes my stomach turn.. I love you so very much sweet boy. I miss you. And I know I will see you again one day, when the Lord calls me home as well. I'll make sure your sisters know how much you adored them, even when they're older. We all love you so much.. til we see each other again,  rest easy sweet boy. I think of you every single day, and will forever. 
Love you,
Aunt Liz

My name is Mr. DeBock and I taught  Tiburon when he was a senior at MBHS.  I can only say my heart goes out to the family.  Tib was ALWAYS smiling and  good person all around. We had many conversations that kept me interested and laughing.  I will miss him. And for anyone who recognizes my name... PLEASE tell someone you love them TODAY.  They need to hear it.

Barry  & family,My family is sorry to hear about Tib passing away.My family will keep your family in our thoughts and prayers. Your friends,Joey. Dellinger,Tracey,Jimmy,Jay & Sean King

Tiburon, In our corner of the world, we've watched you grow from chubby boy to handsome man, blonde curls and beaming smile. We know of your love for God, and how you wanted to be a preacher. By your witness and giving spirit and final sacrifice you have preached to us. On this day, the second anniversary of the accident, we know of your struggle. I wish I could give you a big hug and tell you it's going to be ok. But I know God is holding you in His ever-loving arms and it is ok. We miss you, love you. 
Zach, as always, we are here for you. Y'all are the bestest friends and we love you so much.

Tiburon was a great person to teach!  I wish he could read all these wonderful statements about his love for people and his ability to be kind! 
I will always remember him wearing camo in the halls of MBHS!  He was a great person!

I was at the hospital the day he was born and to see him leave so soon breaks my heart my heart goes out to you Barry and Ginny and all of Tiburons family I know he was a light in y'all,s life that will be missed God be with all of you in this sad time

My thoughts and prayers are with Tib's family and friends. He was a student that warmed the classroom with his smile and friendly demeanor. He was a genuine and caring young man who had much loyalty to his friends, and family.  He will be dearly missed, but always remembered.

Words cannot express the sadness we feel at the loss of this amazing young man. Tiburon was one of our son Elliot's best childhood friends. So many memories of his smile hugs and kindness will always be a part of the Park family. Our prayers cover the Thomas family in this unimaginable grief. Our hearts are broken and there will be a hole in the neighborhood without Tiberon here. Thank you for sharing your son with all of us, he made the world a better place and forever touched any and all who knew him.

Your a Special young Man. God Bless and you will be missed... Love you

So sorry to hear this sad news. Mike always had such fun with Tib and your family when he was little, and you were always so kind in sharing your family with us. Tib stopped by the house this summer and I couldn't believe what a strong and handsome man he had grown into. Thoughts and prayers with you all.

My condolences to the Thomas family. Tib was a fine young man. I have fond memories of him in my class and am glad to have known him.

I don't call a lot of people my friend, but you were one that I did. I love you Tib, and miss you already. I always will.

I know you will keep the angels smiling, just as you did everyone around you. They won't be able to help it, as your smile is contagious. You will be so missed, and never forgotten Tib. We will always love and miss you.

So many memories we share, I love you Tiburon. Fly high. I pray the Lord gives peace and comfort to the family, and friends.


You will never be forgotten.

I didnt know Tib that well but I do know that he was there for anyone in need. I remember when my father passed away and I went to his house. He asked me how I was doing and I just fell to the ground in tears. I couldnt help it. Tib got right on the floor with me and held me while I cried while telling me everything would be alright. It really felt like he wouldn't of wanted to be anywhere else at the time. He made my tears go away and helped me get back up on my feet. We sat and talked about my dad, him and Tib had common interest in Chevelles, Hunting, and the same love for The Doors. I know my dad and unlce found him and I bet theyre blaring Jim Morrison having a blast. Rest in peace you beautiful soul. You will always be in my heart. To the parents, I am so sorry and I know that doesnt make anything better but if you need anything let me know I will definitely do my best. You raised a wonderful man.

Although we did not know Tiburon Thomas, we are friends with his parents and our prayers are with them. May the Lord give you all the comfort and strength to get you through did time of sadness.
             With our deepest sympathy

I remember the first time I met you... You always had a smile on your face no matter what! You will truly be missed by everyone. Fly high and watch over us all!

Will be missed and a lot of memories will be thought about long nights of a child hood dream that not many got to experience but I was one that did and I'll never take the smile off my face you always put on there for use buddy you were a one of a kind and will always be love you buddy can't wait to make some more memories up there hold it down for use

May your light and love for life forever shine through the hearts of your loved ones and friends. We had a few classes together in highschool and I can assure you, you left a memory and imprint on anyone to have ever had the pleasure of meeting you. May you rest in peace Tiburon and may you're family feel as loved this Christmas as much as people have loved you. We will all miss you. My condolences to the Thomas family no words are enough to comfort the loss and grief they are experiencing but rest assured Tiburon is unconditionally loved and many prayers are being sent for the family that loved him and many tears are being shed by all. To Tiburon may his spirit live on forever through all the lives he touched.
