Patricia Thompson Obituary

Patricia Ann Thompson, passed away on May 24, 2025, at the age of 70. She was born on August 27, 1954, in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Patricia retired from the Internal Revenue Service after many years of devoted service. A very social person, Patricia had a knack for making connections and cherishing the relationships she built throughout her life, always eager to share a conversation or a laugh. She had a love for gardening and enjoyed watching movies, a pastime that allowed her to escape into new worlds and stories. Her love for her pets was also a significant aspect of her life, as they brought her immense joy and companionship.

Patricia is survived by her half-brother, Claude J. (Sharon) Combs, along with his three children. Additionally, she is remembered fondly by many cousins who will miss her dearly. Preceding her in death were her parents, Faye Allen and Eliza Thompson Combs; and her brother, Doug Thompson.

As we honor Patricia's memory, we celebrate the joy she brought into the lives of others and the lasting impact she made through friendships and loving spirit.

A Memorial Gathering will be from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm on Friday, May 30, 2025 at Newcomer Cremations, Funerals & Receptions (3309 Ballard Lane, New Albany). Her Memorial Service will follow at 4:00 pm on Friday, at the funeral home. Cremation was chosen following Patricia's wishes.
