Tommy Thompson

Tommy, I will miss your smile and the love you freely gave to everyone who's heart you have touched. The sparkle in your eyes and the kindness of your smile made this a better place for all of us.
I have so adored you for the past 45 years. You have been such a role model for so many young people.
So it is said, "If the measure of someone is the lives they have touched and changed for the better, then your life has been infinite in measure."
You will never be forgotten by...

Hello Big Brother! I miss you sooo but I know your having fun with mom & dad & playing ball, especially with all our animals, haha. You stood by, taught me, made me laugh til we cried, but your in a much better place.. Til we meet again...Love Smutz!

I went to Bowman school with Tommy. When he started in the first grade his dad asked me if I would look after him and see that he got home,which was just down the road from the school. I was in the 4th grade, and one day when I walked him home big Tommy (his dad) asked me in to their house where he showed me a baseball signed by Babe Ruth. Big Tommy played with Ruth in the last game of his (Ruth's)career.
I have thought of Tommy many times and lost track of where he lived. I am so glad...
