Steven I. Thomas

The last call was sounded for Steven I. Thomas 64, a longtime resident and member of the Marlborough, NH Fire Department, on Thursday, November 5, 2020, with his passing at his home with his family at his side following a brief battle with brain cancer. His parents, William F. and Theresa L. (Lampron) Thomas, welcomed their son into the world on May 13, 1956 in Keene, NH. Steven grew up in Marlborough and was a 1974 graduate of Marlborough High School. Wanting to serve his community, Steven was a 44-year member of the Marlborough Fire Department, serving as Deputy Chief for the past 17 years, and as a Deputy Forest Fire Warden in Marlborough. At the time of his passing, Steven was working with Smith Medical as an inspector for the past 42 years. He was an avid NASCAR and football fan. He especially enjoyed riding around and hanging out with his son, Robbie. A friend too many, he will be greatly missed. Steven is survived by his wife of 33 years, Charlene E. (Piper) Thomas of Marlborough; his son, Rob "Robbie" Thomas of Marlborough; his daughter, Alyssa Thomas of Keene; his mother of Marlborough; his three grandchildren, Kyah Lynne Whitney of Nashua, Isaiah Abdul-Malik Whitney of Keene, Zakariya Whitney of Keene; his siblings, Linda Mooney and her husband, Patrick, of Marlow, NH, Bruce Thomas of Seattle, WA, James Thomas and his wife, Gail, of Troy, NH, Paul Thomas and his wife, Lynne, of Hampton, NH; and several nieces.
