LaVon Thompson

LaVon was my great cousin, friend and neighbor. We had some great times. My Love and prayers to the family. Love and miss you LaVon. Jan

I am so saddened to hear of LaVon's death. I was fortunate to work at Black Hawk Middle school when LaVon was a cook there. She always treated the students and staff so well. She kept all of us well fed for sure. Her smile and personality made us always feel welcome and appreciated. My deepest sympathies to LaVon's family and friends. Jerry Mortimer

Bill, John, Tana, Sallee, Dan & Dave - So very sorry to hear of your Mom's passing! We have many memories of her sweet smile and many talents from crafting to cooking. Didn't know of all her musical talent - WOW! We know you'll all miss her a lot! Surely Bruce, Tom & Frank were there to welcome her to her eternal home so take some comfort in knowing how much she enjoyed that reunion. May all the wonderful memories you have help ease some of the pain of losing her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all! God bless you! Bill & Val

I met LaVon through her son, Dan, when we were doing gratis photographing at the holidays. LaVon drove up from Gratiot on those occasions and had made clothes and scarves and mitts for the children who would come to be photographed. Her kindness, her radiance even, attracted me and we became friends, meeting each year at the photo day, then also corresponding regularly. Her letters were filled with stories of her beloved family and concerns about them and the world at large. La Von was a beautiful person, deep, good, solicitous of others, trusting in God’s goodness. I feel privileged to have known her. May you rest in peace, dear LaVon.

Offering my deepest sympathy on your loss. May your Faith bring you strength and comfort.
