William Joseph Thompson III passed away on November 7, 2022 in Vermilion, Ohio.
He is the beloved son of William and Pamela, a grandson, nephew, cousin, and sincere friend to so many.
Will or Bill to his family and friends, alumnus of Xavier University, pursued many passions: IT, restaurant management, boat restoration, and music. He blessed our homes and several stages across Ohio, talented on both piano and bass guitar. William’s compassion was especially evident in his loving care of animals, from farm and wildlife to pets of all kinds.
Those lucky enough to experience William’s love will recall how he delighted in spending weeks searching for the perfect, thoughtful gift for holidays and birthdays. An erudite reader, thinker, and debater, William championed many political causes to highlight injustice around the world. Though his earthly light may have dimmed, his spirit burns brightly for all time.
A private celebration of life for friends and family will be held.
The family suggests memorial contributions be made to Happy Trails Farm Animal Sanctuary, Inc. 5623 New Milford Rd Ravenna, OH 44266, https://happytrailsfarm.app.neoncrm.com/np/clients/happytrailsfarm/donation.jsp.
