John B. Thompson

John B. Thompson, born January 15, 1944, passed away peacefully at his home on April 4, 2026, surrounded by the love of his family.

John was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and great-great-grandfather whose life was defined not only by what he built with his hands, but by the love, laughter, and steady presence he gave to those around him. He had a way of making people feel safe, cared for, and at home in his presence.

John was also proud of his service to the United State Marine Corps. (“Hoorah!”)

​

John’s legacy lives on in the stories, traditions, music, and unwavering love he leaves behind. His presence will be deeply missed, but the memories he created will continue to bring comfort, laughter, and strength to those who knew and loved him.
