I'd seen Mr. Thompson a number of times at church in Mattawan. A big man, with a gentle, kind spirit. Deb had provided a picture of her father for our Memorial Day services. I wasn't aware of his WWII South Pacific duty as part of the "Greatest Generation", but am very thankful for his service. May his Savior be near Dot and family at his homegoing.##imported-begin##Dennis Taplin##imported-end##
To the Thompson family - Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time in your lives. I enjoyed so much meeting Orla and some of his family. It was a privilege to be a part of his care while he was here at Metron of Allegan. I looked forward to seeing him again this past Sunday but it was not to be. He was so lucky to have such a loving, supportive family while he was ill. Not everyone is so lucky. May God grant you the peace that you will need to get through this time in your lives.
