The Thompson Family
We would like to thank everyone for their kindness and generosity. Also, for keeping us in your thoughts, prayers and to all the churches that supported us.
Thank you to the ones that came to the scene of the accident. Also, to the ambulance and rescue personnel. A thank you goes to the U.K. Medical Center staff.
Thank you to Lakes Funeral Home for making the service good. Thank you, Brian Thomas for making the funeral feel not like a funeral but a celebration of "Tootsie" going home. Thank you Turbyfill family for the beautiful songs.
If we left anyone out who gave us cards, letters, money, food, etc… it was not intentional.
We thank you with all our hearts. We still need your prayers. God Bless You!

We want to thank the Britton Funeral Home, the flower shops, the Jacks Branch Bible Church, all who prayed, spoke to us and helped our family in this time of sorrow. Thanks for everything. You will never be forgotten.
