Mar 28, 1956 – Nov 27, 2020 (Age 64)
Timothy Wayne Thompson, age 64, of Nancy, KY, passed away on Friday, November 27, 2020 at his residence after a short battle with cancer.
Tim was born on March 28, 1956 in Springfield, OH, to the late George William Thompson and Anna Lee Perkins Thompson. Tim retired in 2018 following a devoted career at Towne Properties Management Company where he formed many lasting and endearing friendships with co-workers, board members, contractors and residents.
After his retirement, Tim and his wife moved to their dream home overlooking beautiful Lake Cumberland where he enjoyed entertaining family and friends. He was complete and happy when his family was together spending time on the lake.
Tim taught his sons to never walk away from a problem and the importance of pride, hard work and humility. He was the epitome of service to others before himself. He unselfishly helped and touched countless people and asked for nothing in return. His life philosophy was, “Pay It Forward.”
He was beloved by his four grandchildren, Connor, Grant, Lucas and Breslin. Among the numerous jobs he held in his life, “Papaw/Paw” was without a doubt his most cherished. His grandchildren blessed his life with laughter and joy and filled his soul with sunshine.
Tim is survived by his wife Jennifer Ann Mudd Thompson, whom he married on June 18, 1977 in Kettering, OH; his two sons, Mathew (and Karen) Thompson of Lexington, KY and Brian (and Meaghan) Thompson of Edwards Air Force Base, CA; two brothers, Terry Thompson of Kettering, OH and Mark Williams of Batesville, IN; one sister, Cheryl Flynn of Nancy, KY; one sister-in-law, Cindy Bullis of Springboro, OH; niece, Christina Dennis of Moraine, OH; nephew, Blake Bullis of Springboro, OH; and four grandchildren, Connor, Grant, Lucas and Breslin. He will be forever remembered by his many family members and friends.

For several years I was a Board member of a condo community Tim managed and we became good friends. His knowledge of condo rules and all things maintenance was a great asset and he guided us through many challenging times. After our monthly Board meetings, he would update us on the progress of his dream house at the lake and proudly show us pictures of the house and his grandsons. I am so sad he had such a short time to enjoy retirement. My deepest sympathy to Jennifer and family.

Dear Jen, It is hard to accept that Tim has left and is now with The Lord. Although we briefly met him we met such a friendly man who loved you and your family so much! It is so sad to lose him just when you two achieved your dream. You and your family have many beautiful memories to always remind you of his love and deep caring. Our prayers are with you all.

Apparently Heaven needs a great guy and good property manager. Tim was the best, one of the nicest, fairest, most loyal people I have ever met. All of us at A to Z lawn and Landscaping have missed Tim from his first day of retirement, he will surely be missed even more by friends and family. May God both bless you all and bring you peace as you grieve his loss!

Beyond a shadow of a doubt Tim was the nicest and kindest person I have ever met. The thought of his loss leaves a void in all our hearts. I know that God has found him a special place in Heaven and I know some day we will meet again. All the residence of Birkdale Village Condo's feel the pain of his passing.
