Not sure what to say?

Mr. Thompson was an outstanding mentor as I began my career as a high school administrator. I will always cherish the conversations and wisdom that he so graciously shared. Ken´s smile was contagious and he always put others at ease with his presence. Ken will be truly missed. Rest well my friend, you certainly left behind a great and lasting legacy.

Rest in peace myself fellow classmate

Ken, you will be missed classmate.

To the family of Kenneth Thompson. I pray that our Heavenly Father will give you strength and understanding at this time. Ken was wonderful person to know. He was brother of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity. Rest in peace my Brother. (Once a Sigma, Always a Sigma).

To the Thompson Family I offer my sincere condolences and prayers in the transitioning of my good friend Mr. Thompson. Mr. T. was a mentor who I could always count on for advice. He was also a fraternity Brother of Phi beta Sigma Fraternity. I thank God for Mr. T. Be Blessed David Miller

Kenneth was a wonderful friend and colleague. I enjoyed working with him when he served as the interim Safety Officer for Guilford County Schools. Always so thoughtful and professional. The world was better because Kenneth was in it.

Ken's presence was larger than life. He was very comfortable in any evironnent. His chosen profession, education, reflected his ability to interact with students, staff, and community. He touched many lives and our community as a whole is better off because of him. Heaven gates have opened for Ken Thompson

Sorrow to hear of your Loss. May God be with You and Family in your sorrow. May He brighten each tomorrow. May He free your Hearts of grief and leave just Treasured Memories. Kenneth and I were coworkers at Murphey .

I respect this man and all he taught me and meant to me. My heart is saddened to know he passed from us, but hopefully he is with the many students, faculty, staff and those of us who will always have part of him with us through his wisdom, humor and good will. I love Ken and his beautiful wife, Deborah George.
