Ramona Paulette Traversie Obituary

Sep 11, 1952 - Oct 19, 2024

This obituary is administered by:

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of John Richard Thompson, a beloved father, grandfather, husband, and friend. John peacefully passed away on September 10, 2024, surrounded by his family, at the age of 76.

Born on March 5, 1947, in Denver, Colorado, John grew up with a passion for the outdoors and a deep love for his community. After graduating from high school, he went on to serve his country in the United States Navy during the Vietnam War, where he earned commendations for his dedication and courage.

After his service, John returned to Denver and began a long career in engineering, working for more than 30 years with Baxter & Co. Known for his meticulous work ethic, he played a key role in several landmark construction projects in the region. His colleagues often referred to him as “the man who could build anything.”

Outside of work, John was an avid outdoorsman who loved hiking, fishing, and camping with his family. He spent countless weekends in the Rockies, passing on his love for nature to his children and grandchildren. He also volunteered regularly at his local church, where he served as a deacon and mentor to many younger members of the congregation.

John is survived by his devoted wife of 50 years, Mary Thompson; his two children, David Thompson (Lisa) and Sarah Marshall (John); his four grandchildren, Emma, Grace, Michael, and Jacob; and his brother, Edward Thompson. He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert and Helen Thompson.

John’s family invites you to celebrate his life at a memorial service on Saturday, September 14, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. at St. Peter’s Church, Denver, Colorado. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in John’s honor to the American Cancer Society.

John will be remembered for his generosity, his dedication to family, and his unwavering faith. His spirit lives on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.

You can to the family or in memory of Ramona Traversie.
