They went with songs to battle, they were young
Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow.
They stood staunch to the end against odds uncounted,
They fell with their faces to the foe

Rest in Peace, brother. My condolences to the family and friends, of whom I know there are many.

Be advised that Thomas was also the president of the Calgary Chapter of the Falcons MC Veteran Canada at the time of his passing. Condolences may be posted here.
