years from now, young people in Wyoming will talk about the many events that have helped shape their lives-- people such as their parents, their friends, and their teachers, places such as the Tetons, Devil's Tower, and the Wyoming Range, and some will say that Craig and Susan Thomas helped change their lives. They will say there was a foundation. Almost out of the blue they will say that it gave them a scholarship, that it encouraged them to succeed, and that it helped them back into school. And one of those individuals will be able to say: I now have a great job, I have a family, and I get to keep living in Wyoming. These young people will say: If it wasn't for the Craig and Susan Thomas Foundation, I don't know where I would be today. We know the Craig Thomas who fought every day for the people of Wyoming, advocating before each of you with a Western common sense that is legendary, but on the weekends and on his time in Wyoming, for nearly two decades, the one thing our friend Craig Thomas dedicated himself tirelessly to was the young people of Wyoming.
