Carolyn "Brenda" Thompson, of Troy, passed away at Springmeade Health Center on December 13th, 2020. She was born on July 19th, 1952. She was preceded in death by her parents Charles and Joy Dawson.

Brenda will forever be remembered by her sons and daughters-in-law: Shay Thompson (Michelle) and Tyler Thompson (Michele); grandsons: Josh (Sarah) and Caleb (Leisha); granddaughters: Jasmine and Madilynn; great-grandsons: Noah and Gideon; brother: Brent (Susan) Dawson; nieces: Sarah and Michelle; nephew: Daniel; aunt: Jean Johnson; and special loved ones: Maurice Robinson, Cathy Taborn, and Amiee Beard, as well as many others touched by her kindness and love.

Brenda was at her best surrounded by her family and friends and always made sure that her loved ones knew just how much she loved them. She'll be remembered for her genuine kindheartedness and compassion.

'Three things will last forever-faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love'.   1 Corinthians 13:13
