Thomas was a well known Comedian who was best known for being half of the comedy/music duo "The Smothers Brothers" with his only sibling, his brother, Dick Smothers.
When he retired from being a Comedian, Thomas became known for his love of playing bocce and he would spend his waking hours practicing and waxing his balls. Mr. Smothers (also known as The Tomster) also spent days visiting with his sons most months when he was able to spare a couple seconds. Ever since he was a boy in New York, many remember Thomas as a bit of a jerk with funny magic tricks that entertained everyone who would watch.
