Bro. and Sis. Thompson have been married for 68 years.
They met at ABI. I think she was no longer able to give him the care he needed at home and he had to move into a nursing home (hospice).
Bro. L.R. Mitchell baptized me at Bro. Ellis' church Oct. 27, 1955 and about that time he left for North Dakota to take the Jesus' name message there.
I started attending the church in Racine some time after I was baptized. It was some time before Christmas. At that time Bro. Thompson was pastor. There were several people in that church that were part of his family.
