Leon and I worked together for 10 years at NC DMV School Bus & Traffic Safety as Driver Education Program Specialist. We supported each other through those years and became good friends. We retired in 2018 and have maintained our friendship. We both have travel trailers on seasonal sites at Raccoon Holler along the Blue Ridge Parkway. We always looked forward to spending time with Linda and Leon and Trotter - before Trotter was Boone. Leon put God first, family second and country third. We shared much and I respected Leon´s opinions and values. I miss him dearly and pray God will continue to bless, guide and help his family and friends adjust to life without Leon´s physical presence knowing he will watch over them from his higher place. Thank you God for Leon Thompson. We pray for those that don´t have a relationship with Jesus.
Sincerely, Sonnie, Patty and Shiloh Merle McRae
