My Thompson was an extraordinary civil servant who was highly knowledgeable in his contracting profession. His service with ACC-Redstone was remarkable as he served his nation with dignity and grace. He was always there to lend a hand, easy to talk to and above all I enjoyed his light hearted soul. I pray for comfort for the family. Rest in peace.
Joe and Dennis,
We are so sorry for your loss. We are extremely grateful and appreciative of everything your family has done for us by supplying us with hay for our cows. We will definitely miss the interaction with Vince when we would come by and get the hay. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. Please reach out to us if you need anything.
Your neighbors,
Mark and Cortney Hoffman

Dear brother your life has been good for so many of us, especially your family. I have wonderful memories of my little brother who helped me so much since he could drive a car and I could not when we were young. I remember how smart you were from a young age and your love of books, you always were an enthusiastic reader and a bright student. Later I appreciated how you and Kathy welcomed me into your home during my cross-country drives. It was a joy to see Joe and Dennis and share in your family activities. Now you are at peace, your suffering is over and we have lovely memories of all you gave us. Love, forever, your sister Michele. .
