Sadly, we've learned through a classmate that Bob Thomas passed away earlier this week while on vacation in Las Vegas. In addiion, due to the circumstances of his death, the family is struggling to find a way to return him to Essexville, MI for a funeral, etc. 

You can see the full story here via a TV news piece on the tragic circumstances.

Also, if you would like to help the family, a GoFundMe page has been established to help raise funds to return Bob to his home for a funeral.

Our condolences go out to his wife Glenda and family.
