We are deeply saddened to share that our brother and friend, Thomas Kleinpeter, has passed away. Thomas was the kind of person who made life more meaningful just by being in it. He was an avid hunter and fisherman who found peace in the outdoors, and he carried that same passion and joy into every friendship he made. Thomas was a proud member of Kappa Alpha Order at Louisiana Tech, where he formed lifelong bonds and brought laughter, loyalty, and genuine brotherhood to everyone around him. He loved spending time with his friends, and anyone who knew him knew how big his heart was.

As we mourn his loss, we are coming together to support his family with the unexpected costs of funeral expenses. No family should have to face this burden alone, especially during a time of such profound grief. Every donation—no matter the amount—will help honor Thomas’s life and legacy. Even if you are unable to give, sharing this page with others is a meaningful way to show support. Thank you for helping us lift up his family, remember his remarkable spirit, and celebrate the life of someone we loved so deeply.
