Robert Earl Thompson, age 66, passed away on Friday, January 30, 2026 at the Colonial Nursing Home in Marksville.

Mr. Robert is a native of New Orleans, Louisiana. He was an intelligent soul with a curious mind, known from a young age for his love of reading and learning. He had a deep appreciation for music, found joy in good food, and was always quick with a joke that could bring smiles and laughter to those around him. Above all, he loved the Lord, and his faith guided his life and the way he treated others. His humor, wisdom, and love will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Those left to cherish his memory are his daughter, Natalie Johnson (Kevin) of New Orleans; sisters, Deborah Thompson Ogisi of Iowa, LA, Tammy Mack of Kentucky, Michelle Jones of Kentucky, and Sandra Thompson Thornton (Donald) of Kentucky; brothers, Patrick Thompson of Sulfur, LA, Nelson Thompson of New Orleans, and Ronald Jones (Elenora) of Orange, Texas. He is also survived by 11 nephews, 9 nieces, 22 great nephews, 17 great nieces and 1 great-great niece.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Queen Esther Thompson.

Kilpatrick’s Rose-Neath Funeral Home of Marksville have been entrusted with funeral arrangements.
