It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Linda Thompson, who passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, on May 5, 2025, at the age of 82. She is survived by her children, Teddi Thompson Smith, Thomas Thompson and James Thompson, her brother, Gary Graves and her six grandchildren. She was known for her heart, grace, dignity and fierce resilience. She was the matriarch and anchor of our family and will be truly missed. All who encountered her during the fight against her illness remarked about her strength, grace and fighter's heart. She will now be reunited with the love of her life, her husband of 52 years, Ronald Thompson.

In lieu of flowers, the family would suggest donations to the American Cancer Society in her honor.
