Georgette Marie Thomas

Georgette Marie Thomas, of Akron, Ohio, passed away in Akron on November 8, 2026, at the age of 76. She was born in Akron on October 12, 1950, and made her life in the community she called home.

After graduating from high school, Georgette began working at Akron Credit Bureau, where she spent six years as a file clerk. In 1976, she married Ken Thomas, and together they began a life centered on family. She was, above all, a homemaker and a mother to her children, devoting herself mostly to caring for her family and home.

Georgette found enjoyment in the simple pleasures that brought comfort and familiarity to everyday life. She enjoyed movies, reading, and video games, including Farmville and Merge Mansion. She was a good friend to those she held close, and while she was a private person, the friendships she kept were meaningful and lasting.

She is survived by her loving husband of 50 years, Ken Thomas. She also leaves behind her children, David Thomas and his wife, Suzi, Jen McConnell and her husband, John, and Andy Thomas. Her family continued to grow through her grandchildren, Johnathan, Meredith, Rachel, Jordan, and Alex, and through her great-grandchild, Tristan, each of whom was part of the family she and Ken built together.

Georgette is also survived by her sister, Sandy Stout, and her brother-in-law, Norman Stout, as well as many loving nieces, nephews, and friends who will remember her with affection.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Louise Baker; her father, George Baker; and her grandson, Christopher.

An Informal Celebration of Life will be Friday, November 13, 2026, from 6:00 - 8:00pm at Newcomer Funeral home, 131 N. Canton Road, Akron.
