In Loving Memory
Stinson Thompson, Sr.
Stinson Thompson Sr with the help of his wife Shirley Thompson, strived to support the community in exponential ways. Stinson Thompson Sr. served the community through various forms of volunteer service, while also operating several businesses to provide resources to those within the African American community. After taking on "Thompson Brothers Funeral home" originally founded by his father, Stinson focused on revamping the business as a whole. Through his passion for service & strong faith, he not only wanted to serve families through funeral service, but also expanded by adding a chapel. This created a safe place where families were able to gather and worship during challenging times. Stinson strongly believed in making a difference, not only within his community but in other surrounding areas. He believed that by working together, more success would be generated within the community. Thompson Mortuary & Chapel is founded off of the business ethic & values that Stinson Thompson set into place.
