Thomas Kurian, 57 years old, went to be with our Father in Heaven on Friday, April 8, 2011. Thomas was born to Mr. Pathrose Kurian and Mrs. Aleyamma Kurian on October 27, 1954 in Mulakulam, Kerala, India. As a child he dreamed of maintaining and flying aircrafts. He followed his dreams and successfully graduated from Thalayola Parambu Devasam Board College and earned his Aircraft Technician degree from Madras, India. He later married Sara and moved to the United States of America in 1990 in search of greater opportunities. He worked most of his life as an airplane mechanic in various states. He is survived by his wife, Sara Kurian, and his children, Robby and Sherry. Thomas was a loving and caring father and husband and will be dearly missed by all that knew him. We take comfort knowing that he is free from pain in the arms of our Lord.
