Sergeant Thomas, only 37 years of age, had become an integral member of the force where he served for 11 years before his life was cut short.

With the permission of his beloved family we are honored to have his name represent our cause The “Carl “Skip” Thomas Jr. Memorial golf tournament”. The tournament benefiting the KCCAC will be held October 22, 2012 at Cedar Creek country Club.
