Not sure what to say?

I will miss our monthly conversations about fishing, Hunting, family and life. Dr Thompson you were one of the best. Over 14 years you helped me through tough times as a young man, saw me through Marriage and the birth of my first child always assuring me that I could do anything. Our conversations will continue to guide me through the rest of my life. I will always have a smile on my face when I think about Doc Thompson. I hope the fishing is good up there, save a few for me.

Heads Up Tuesday lunches ! - yes, that's exactly what I think of when Bob's name comes to mind. He was always there - warm, quiet, funny, handsome and helpful. Bob was a perfectly lovely gentleman. And he was one of the rocks in the Heads Up/YES foundation.
There is a hole in my heart now that Bob is gone - but he has left a legacy in many ways and that gives me comfort.
Please know that my thoughts are with you and your family.

In all my 25 years at YES, Bob was with us for Tuesday lunch. It would not have been Tuesday lunch without him and Kay's contributions. In the earlier years, when the agency was small, we'd have parties that included our families. Kay and Bob were wonderful and caring hosts. May you find joy in wonderful memories like these as you grieve the loss of your husband and father.

I am saddened by the fact that I am unable to join in the celebration of his life as I will be at a class...

I was so heartbroken when I heard of Dr. Thompson's passing. It is such a tragedy to lose such a wonderful, sweet man. It was such a pleasure working with Dr. Thompson (or "Dr. T" as we called him at the office). He always had a smile on his face, a baseball cap on his head and a cup of joe in his hand. He will be sorely missed, always loved and never forgotten..
