Albert Theodore Thompson

As Principal of Gompers Middle School, 1980-1988 it was my privilege to work with Al. Al was a caring, creative teacher. His relationship with his students (kids) was superlative. He was a genuine, great guy. His sense of humor was infectious. Please accept my heartfelt condolences. Rollie Willan

Going to the boundary waters with Al was one of my favorite things to do each spring. My sincerest condolences to you Mary Kay and the rest of Als family. Because of my health condition I will not be able to attend visitation, Jim Kanvik

Al was a wonderful colleague when we taught together at Gompers Middle School. His devotion to his students and to teaching was very evident and I've always been grateful for the knowledge and skills he shared so generously.

Mr. T was my high school softball coach. We had a lot of fun times and won a lot of ball games. I’m very sorry to hear of his passing. He was a top notch guy. Please accept my sincere condolences. RIP COACH THOMPSON

I am thankful that as a young teacher I can a’s able to work at the same middle school as Al. What a fun, kind man! My thoughts are with you, Mary, and all of the family.
