Thomas Roger Tribble

Thomas Tribble was a man of quiet strength. He was never the loudest person in the room, nor did he need to be. His strength, leadership, and faith spoke for themselves through the way he lived and the way he loved those around him. He was a leader and a devoted follower of Christ whose steady presence earned the admiration and respect of so many. One verse that defined his life was Joshua 24:15: “But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” This was more than his favorite verse—it was a theme for his life and a reflection of the faith that guided him.

Thomas’ sudden passing on Monday morning has left a space in the hearts of those who loved him that can never truly be filled. There is deep sadness in knowing that we will miss his presence, his voice, his quiet strength, and the steady way he led. And yet, alongside that heartbreak is an incredible sense of hope and even joy. Thomas spent his life following Jesus and while we are shattered by the loss of our dad, we rejoice in knowing that he stepped from this life into eternity and into the presence of the Savior he loved.

Thomas leaves behind a legacy of quiet strength, faithful leadership, and a life centered on Christ. He showed us that you do not have to be loud to make an impact, and that some of the strongest people are those who faithfully stand firm and lead by example. We will miss him deeply, love him always, and carry his example with us. Our hearts are broken because we have had to say goodbye for now, but we hold tightly to the promise that because of Jesus, this is not goodbye forever. As for Thomas he served the Lord this is the house he built.

A Celebration of Life will be held at 11:00 am on September 26, 2026, at Canyon Hills Community Church, 22027 17th Ave SE, Bothell, WA 98021.
