Lowell Glen and Mamie Marie Thomas welcomed their first baby boy, Anthony Lowell Thomas, into the world on December 22, 1969, in New York. Two years later, Anthony, affectionately known as Tony, was joined by a younger brother, Barry Alan Thomas. After their father's death, the small family moved to New Orleans, LA where they found strength and support with family. Tony's mother continued to be an inspiration to her sons and the family relocated to Houston, TX. Tony always honored, admired, and loved his mother's resilience and strength.

Tony committed his life to Christ at an early age and was later baptized by Pastor O. of Fallbrook Church. Although Tony attended Lafayette Elementary, Mc Main Junior High, and Warren Easton High School in New Orleans, he graduated from Kingwood High School in Kingwood, TX, before attending Lone Star College.

Tony was a distinguished salesman. He spent a lifetime studying customer service, and cultivating relationships that would result in a win-win for both the company and his customers. He put his social media skills to work and successfully launched his "I need a car Tony!" campaign and other business ventures. Tony's salesmanship, promotional talents, and love of music helped him bring his vision to life when he opened a premier hip-hop nightclub, Club Sugar Hill! At Club Sugar Hill, Tony entertained celebrities, old friends, and the Houston community he loved so much. Still, Tony's largest contribution was as an employer and mentor. Tony understood he could be an agent of change by empowering others and helping them find economic independence. He encouraged countless young people to define their own success and work tirelessly to meet their goals.

Tony leaves to cherish his memory his loving mother, Mamie Marie Thomas, a devoted brother, Barry Alan Thomas (Margarita), uncles John Brown Jr. (Jannie), Mac Brown (Lois) of New Orleans, La., his loving partner, Jhatona (Jaye) Martin, two stepchildren, Jade Sims and Joe Smith Jr., half-siblings, Lorraine and Jerome Thomas, Godson Otis Darjean Jr., and cousins Russell, Keith, Phoebe, Myrna, and Marc Brown, Kim and Albert Mack and Ronald and Ronnie Mack, along with a host of other relatives and friends. Tony is preceded in death by his father, Lowell Glen Thomas, Grandmother Mable Thomas, and maternal grandparents John and Almena Brown
