Thomas J. Munster passed away on Thursday, April 16th, 2026 at the age of 85. Born on August 26th, 1940 to Ralph and Margaret Munster (nee Wilken). Thomas attended Cleveland High School before enlisting in the U.S. Army. He served honorably as a Military Policeman in Germany. Thomas enjoyed many, many things. Among those things were barbecuing his famous pork steaks, DIY projects, cars, mountain dew and Chuck Norris the Texas Ranger. He was a man who worked tirelessly to ensure his family was loved and had everything they needed. Most importantly he cherished his role as husband, father, pawpaw and great grandfather.
Thomas was preceded in death by his parents and by his siblings Marilyn (Richard) Kardell and Gerald (Martha) Munster. He is survived by his beloved wife, Sharon Munster (nee Greenwalt). Dear father of Melinda (Brett) Cox, Dale (Rachel) Munster, Derek Munster, and Kristina (Jonathan) Livingstone. Dear grandfather of Victoria Cox, Allison Cox, Alexandra (Sean) Martin, Clayton Munster, Conner Munster, Spencer Munster and Mackinley Livingstone. Dear great grandfather of Adam Martin and Ryan Martin. Beloved brother of Linda (Jim) Ridall, Nettie (Harry) Magill, and Jeanne (Don) Keutzer. Our dear uncle, cousin, brother-in-law, neighbor and friend of many.
A private service will be held at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date, where family and friends are invited to gather, share memories, and honor his life.
