I, Mrs. EMILY G. THOMPSON (born on May 9, 1918 in Oxford, Nova Scotia) passed away on December 3, 2021 at the age 103 years I left this earthly place but will continue to listen to my music (the “oldies”) but now with a heavenly touch.  Music provided great joy to me and kept me feeling cheerful no matter what happened.  I really enjoyed going out dancing and playing cards with my friends.

Many thanks to the staff at Sunrise Village during my 8 years there and to the staff at West Highlands Centre during the past 3 years and especially during my few last days.  Everyone was fabulous.  The attentive care during my last days has been appreciated.  I especially want to thank Emma, who has been my helper and friend for many years.

My husband Ken predeceased me by 11 years.  I am survived by my son Brent Thompson and his wife Lesley of Calgary and by my grandchildren Susan Padua, and her husband Rodel along with their son Rigel, and Mark Thompson, and his wife Heather along with their sons Rowan and Torno, all of Calgary except Torno who is in Vancouver.

At my request there will be no funeral service.  Those who wish may make a donation to the Lethbridge Humane Society (www.lethbridgehumanesociety.com).  I have owned many dogs during my life because they provide such great company and comfort.
