1. Tell us a little bit about yourself. Are you from the area or do you have any connections to Onslow County? What are some things you would like the people of Onslow to know about you on a personal level?
I am a bit of an outdoor enthusiast, a terrible golfer, and married to an aspiring sommelier. I was born in Massachusetts, but we moved around quite a bit when I was growing up. Eventually, I settled down in Florida’s Tampa Bay area, where I met my wife, Krystal. This year will be our 10th wedding anniversary and mark 15 years together. We have been blessed to be able to travel, experience other cultures, and make friends all over the world. I earned my master’s degree in Business Administration from the University of Florida. After spending 20 years in Florida, we moved to North Carolina to be closer to my immediate family. I was working for a professional events company at the time and became familiar with the staff at RDU. My wife’s company has an office in North Raleigh
Whether they worked with her, taught with her, volunteered with her or served with her, friends and colleagues of longtime educator and public servant Pam Thomas remembered one thing: her love for Onslow County.
“Pam was a pillar of our community, a mentor and a leader,” Onslow County Board of Education member Ken Reddic said.
Onslow County’s education community lost a great advocate with Thomas’ death and the community as a whole lost a great public servant, Reddic said.
Thomas, who was admitted to the hospital in late November after being diagnosed with COVID-19, died early Sunday morning.
Thomas worked as a teacher, coach and supervisor with Onslow County Schools for 34 years and after her retirement was elected to the Board of Education. She joined the school board in 2004 and served as chairman from 2010 until her final term, which ended this month.
