In Loving Memory of
Elaine A. Thompson October 12, 1936 – October 11, 2025
With deep love and gratitude, we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, and friend, Elaine A. Thompson, who entered eternal rest on October 11, 2025, one day before her 89th birthday.
Elaine was a devoted Catholic, a long-time member of St. Louis Catholic Church, and the proud mother of six sons. She was known for her joyful spirit, love of antiques, and the warmth she brought to every room.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Daniel R. Thompson, and sons Daniel and Andrew. She is survived by her sons Patrick, Jerome (Tracy), Robert (Carla), and Samuel (Brandy), along with her cherished grandchildren and extended family.
A Funeral Mass will be held at St. Louis Catholic Church on Oct. 20th at 1:30 p.m. with visitation at 12:30 p.m. A reception will follow at the church. Burial will take place at Calvary Cemetery at a later date.
“Well done, good and faithful servant.” — Matthew 25:23
