Tracy JaRonne Thomas, (AKA Ronnie), age 36, born February 6, 1986 to Ms. Tracy Thomas, went home to be with the Lord on June 6, 2022 at Bayhealth Kent General surrounded by his loved ones.
In his early years, Tracy lived with his family in Dover, DE. From the age of 7-18, he was a part of the Knights of Pythagoras and then graduated from Dover High School in 2004. He went on to attend Goldey Beacom College and worked at various banks before joining the Army Rhode Island National Guard in 2009. He spent time in Fort Eustis, VA to train to be an aircraft electrician, graduating at the top of his class with honors.
Tracy later moved to Rhode Island where he was stationed as an Aircraft Electrician for the Delta Company 1st Batallion unit regiment out of Quonset, Rhode Island. While there, he met the love of his life Nancy. Prior to getting married, they were together for four wonderful years which led to 12 years together and 8 years of marriage. And during those years, they had 3 beautiful children. Tracy also did two tours of duty in Iraq and Kuwait.
Tracy lived a full life of hope; his wife and his children were his main focus in life; he loved them more than anything. He was a devoted husband, father, son, brother and friend. He had a great sense of humor and was always a jokester. He literally did anything to make you laugh. He enjoyed listening to music and watching his two favorite shows, Jeopardy and Seinfeld. Tracy had a big heart and he is truly going to be missed.
Tracy was preceded in death by his maternal grandmother, Ms. Doris A. Brown; his maternal grandfather Charles Thomas; maternal great grandmother and grandfather Mildred and Aldolphus Brown; Ms. Novella Thomas; his aunt Carolynn Watkins; his cousin Danielle Emory (who was like a sister); his uncle, Charles Michael Thomas; brother Eric D. Thomas and many cousins, aunts, and loved ones.
