THOMPSON, Euna M. 72, Dayton, passed Sat., August 13. Funeral service 12noon Saturday, August 20, at Tabernacle Baptist Church. House of Wheat Funeral Home, Inc.
Mrs. Thompson was a great woman. I remember her being straight to the point. She made us stand up in the front of the class to recite a speech. I didn't know then, that I was being prepared for what God had for me. Mrs. Thompson was the first person to tell me, that I had bass in my voice. She will be missed by many.
Mrs. Thompson was a very supportive individual. I knew that I would never be a singer but she didn't tell me that. She encouraged me to do my best and to enjoy the songs and the history behind them. One of my favorite memories of Mrs. Thompson was going to the YWCA to sing for the seniors in the Prime Time Program. Her mother was a participant. We sang a beautiful song called "What a Difference You've Made in My Life." She dedicated it to her mom which made me think about my mom who died in 1979. After we sang, Mrs. Thompson and I both cried and hugged each other. What a difference you made in our lives, Mrs. Thompson.
