Brother of the late Margaret Thibodeau, Joseph Thomas and Lillian Danubio. Also survived many nieces and nephews. William was a life long resident of Hingham, living in the same home for close to 90 years. After high school, he joined the U.S. Marine Corp. His family gave him the most fulfillment in life and he truly enjoyed being a father and grandfather. He shared a love of horses with his daughter and they later owned one together. Mr. Thomas retired from the U.S. Postal Service in 1975 after 32 years, working in Weymouth Landing. He will be remembered most for his daily walks through the neighborhoods in Hingham. He was strong and independent, yet gentle and always willing to help others.
