Frank Arthur Thomas Jr.

Frank was born to the late Marilyn Peters and Frank Arthur Thomas Sr., and was also preceded in death by his stepbrothers, Steve Schultz and Jeffrey Peters. He built a long and respected career as a systems analyst, retiring from Dominion Payroll.

Frank valued education and lifelong learning, earning his bachelor’s degree from Northern Illinois University and his master’s degree from DeVry University. Outside of his professional life, he found joy in cycling, playing pickleball, and tending to his garden—simple pleasures that brought him both peace and connection with others.

He is survived by his loving and cherished wife, Gloria Bazzoli; his siblings, Lynn Krupa, Garry Peters, Joseph Peters, and Ron Schultz; his niece, Carole Krupa; his nephew, Jeremy Krupa; and his mother-in-law, Lorraine Bazzoli. He will be remembered for his steady presence, thoughtful nature, and devotion to family.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that contributions be made to the American Cancer Society in Frank’s memory.

Frank’s life was one of quiet strength, dedication, and love, and he will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
