SERVICE BEFORE SELF

Our Story

Thompson Funeral Home, Inc. was founded in 1938 by the late Hugh D. Thompson. The funeral home has been owned and operated by Sandra Thompson Rickenbaker for over 20 years. She along with her husband, Thomas S. Rickenbaker, Sr. and three sons, Robert D. Jackson, Jr., Hugh "Bill" Jackson, funeral home Manager and Buddy F. Jackson carry on the tradition and work in the funeral home, serving families in their time of need. 


What started out as a dream for the late Hugh D. Thompson has turned into a lifelong commitment by the Thompson family. Our deep roots in the community are a source of pride, as we grow side by side with the families we serve. 


We hope you will consider us your source for compassionate care and exemplary service. Our pledge is to help you honor your loved one in a meaningful way, offering thoughtful guidance and personal attention to every detail. 

Our goal is to create a memorable experience and ensure you always feel welcome. We dedicate our time to planning alongside families, staying informed on the latest industry developments, and making hard times a little easier.
