Thomas Richard Creamer Kentwood, Michigan Obituary

Thomas Richard Creamer

Thomas Richard Creamer, of Grand Rapids MI, passed away on Tuesday, Oct 13 2020 at the age of 75. His passing came after a 6 month battle with bone marrow cancer. His son, Timothy, and daughter, Angela, were by his side as he transitioned into his next journey. Thomas was the consummate salesman that drew people in with his kindness and charisma. He spent many years selling paper, restaurant supplies and life insurance. His outgoing personality translated perfectly into the theatre where he acted in productions such as On Golden Pond, The Odd Couple, and The Music Man for the Grand Rapids Civic Theatre. When he wasn’t acting or selling, you were more than likely to find him on the golf course. It was where he may have been his happiest. He is preceded in death by his parents Richard and Virginia Creamer and by his brother Norman. Thomas will be sorely missed by his brothers, David and Steven; sister, Kathy Loveless; son, Timothy; daughter, Angela; and three grandchildren Evan, Jake and Jeanette. There are no memorial services pending, but his ashes will be spread later this Spring. His warmth, laugh and humor will always be remembered.
