Thomas Queen – A Man on the Rise
Thomas was exposed to music through her father Rufus singing with Memphis’ WDIA Radio’s Teen Town Singers; this group would go on to include Anita Louis and Isaac Hayes among its ranks.

She was an advocate of public schools and, with her husband’s help, established Austin’s first charter school. Additionally, she served on both boards of KIPP Austin Public Schools and St Andrew’s Episcopal School.
Thomas was greatly influenced by his grandfather, who imparted to him both work ethic and self-reliance. Thomas went on to a successful civil rights attorney career and is remembered for his quiet yet confident demeanor during oral arguments. Thomas will be missed dearly by both family and friends;

Achievement and Honors
Witty and stylish, Thomas was always on the move. With Henry in his corner and Catherine of Aragon already pregnant with her mourning period pending, Thomas used charm to court Kat Parry as part of his plan to court Elizabeth, perhaps so as not to inconvenience Kat and make courtship easier for himself.
