Robert Thompson

OMG. Bobby was a loved fixture at Castaway Lounge, from when I bought the place in 2014. until he moved to the Phillipines. He can sing in heaven with Doug Schmidt, who got there before him.

Bob and I used to be best friends from 1990 when we met until maybe 2005 when we lost touch due to career changes, moving away, etc. He would do anything for his friends, even if it involved driving 300+ miles on short notice. May he rest in the arms of Jesus, forever.

I called Bobby my Favorite Bro. because he was truly that. He called me "Susie"(only person who called me by that name.) He was a beautiful person who loved children. He was my children's favorite babysitter. He was funny and made people laugh. He will be missed by all of his family (those here and those in the Philippines).

Graduated same year as Bob at JHS but didn´t really know each other until we ended up in the same class at JCC. Have been good friends ever since. Even got me into the optical business that lasted 41 years. Condolences to the family. You will be missed.

So sorry to hear of Bobby's passing. Grew up in the same neighborhood and went to Saint Edward's with the family. Prayers for comfort and healing.

Anthony and Alisha,
My heart breaks for you during this difficult time. The two greatest gifts your dad gave me is an amazing son and daughter. I´m sure you will cherish all the good memories of him just as I will. I love you to the moon and back! Momma

Missing My wonderful husband
Another day goes by without you
Another day to reminisce
About all the times we shared together for 8 years
It's been the hardest thing to lose you
You meant so much to me
And the kids here really miss you.
You're very kind to everyone.
You always made us feel loved and safe.
We had the rest of our lives ahead of us
The plans and dreams we made
I know you would have stayed on earth
If you had the power to
I know you'd have spared me the grief
And pain if only you could.
I know I can't bring you back
Although I wish it everyday
I know that you are with me
Watching over from afar
I'll cherish my memories of you forever.
We love you so much.

My very first memory of Bobby was on the day he was born. Back then, you didn´t know whether you were having a boy or girl. My parents longed for a son. They instilled that longing into us. All of us wanted a boy. His birth was an absolute blessing! We were all so happy. I was in grade school at Saint Edwards. I remember going to school the next day so excited and joyfully bragged to everyone that I had a baby brother. He was absolutely beautiful! And such a sweet sweet baby. And a wonderful brother. Loved him very much always will. I rejoice knowing that he is with the Lord in heaven, and my sister Dena and Mom and Dad.

The Jeffersontown High School Alumni Association is saddened by the loss of Bob. He was an important part of the class of 1975 and will always be remembered by his classmates. Rest easy, Charger

Growing up at Naomi house, the Thompson family welcomed me and my Naomi House siblings with open arms. Uncle Bobby became someone truly special to know. One of my first favorite memories of him was when he chased the kids around Aunt Sue´s house, tickling us with his toes. It was gross, but absolutely hilarious. Uncle Bobby always made us feel safe, welcomed, and loved, leaving a lasting impression of joy and warmth that I will carry with me forever. His carefree spirit taught me to not take life too seriously and find laughter in everything. He was a great person to know. Missing you Uncle Bobby.
