Reflections for Corporal Matthew Alan Thompson

Cpl. Thompson,
On today, the 20th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just for your Community but for our Country as well when you served with the U.S. Coast Guard. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Semper Paratus!

20 years. Still seems like a dream/nightmare. We love you. I think about you all the time. We tell the 5 grandchildren all about you so that they will know who you are and that you will never be forgotten. I love you.

I did not know Matt very well, but I did enjoy the times we had together while at Mobile Police Department. He is missed, and thought about often...

Lee Ann, I still remember the good father and husband Matt was. I enjoyed working with Matt in Chickasaw and then I got to work with him in Mobile. So I was double blessed to know Matt. I have not forgotten you and the (grown) children and Matt.

Miss you so much.!!!! Have you been talking to these grandbabies? They tell us they have been talking to you. It really puts chills on our spine when the babies say " I am talking to PaPa Matt and we are talking about JESUS. Really don't know what to think about that. They are only 20 months old, so I don't know...... Gosh, I wish I could talk to you..

I love you!!!

Matt,
I took over your squad after your departure. All the old members are gone now. Cpl Dickerson was the last, and he has gotten himself promoted to sergeant and runs his own squad now. I didn't know you real well back in the day, but I often think about you as I go about the business of running 2nd squad. The department has changed since those days, most of the faces are new. I still have that ugly mug that was left on the desk when I got here. I think of you each time I look at it, and I feel you here when there are hard choices to be made. RIP my brother, your squad soldiers on.
