I am thankful I had the privilege of knowing Ed. I know that he is in the everlasting comfort of the Lord's arms now and I pray for his loved ones to find peace at this difficult time.

Chief Thompson was a great guy. He had such a sharp wit and a wacky sense of humor. He always had us laughing. Ed was so proud to have served in the greatest navy in the world. He was a real Chief's Chief. We swapped many a sea story and I think some of them might have actually been true! He will be missed by all that had the opportunity to work with him while he was hospitalized. I for one, am certainly glad I got to know this wonderful man.
Fair winds, and following seas Chief Thompson.
