Bobby Thompson
Bobby really didn't want to leave us. The pain, however, became too great. Bobby left in peace on Sunday, Aug. 17, just two weeks short of his 36th birthday.

At home with Bobby was his family, Barbara and Martin Thompson, Paul Johnson and Kevin Wadsworth. Bobby is survived by many friends and the memory of his love for square dancing, classical music and flowers.

The family wishes to express their love and thanks to Skip Rose, Warren Crawford, Sally Scheper, Shanti, Mt. Zion, Visiting Nurse Association, Hospice, Bank of America, The Rawhide Saddletramps, Dr. Laurel Dawson, Dr. Carol Jessop, and the many friends of Bobby, Kevin and Paul who provided support and lots of help during the past eight months.[2]
