Webster-
Tim Thomas passed away on April 20, 2019. Tim is survived by his wife, Margaret Thomas; his father, Allen (Nancy), siblings Anne (Paul) and Brian. He is preceded in death by his mother, Betty Thomas and nephew, Jordan (Anne).

Tim graduated from West High and University of Iowa School of Music. He obtained his Juris Doctorate from the U of I, practiced law and went on to a legal editing and writing career with Thomson Reuters in Rochester, NY. Tim’s passion was performance choral, concert, and opera music. As with most of life’s events, he understood that the music is not in the notes, but in the silence between (Mozart).

Tim was an avid reader of history, the classics, science, mysteries, and science fiction. However, he likely admired most the philosophies of Calvin and Hobbes. “I think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long.” (Bill Watterson).

Services will be held in Iowa. Gifts should be directed to First Inversion Vocal Ensemble of Rochester c/o Lee Wright at firstinversion.org
