Albert Thompson, passed away at the age of 63, after a short battle with cancer, on September 7, 2023, at Bolingbrook Hospital, surrounded by the love of his family. Al was born in Silver Creek, NY, on December 21, 1959, the son of the late Philip and Ruth Thompson. Al grew up on the Cattaraugus Indian Reservation in New York, and was a proud member of the Cayuga Nation.

He retired from the Fred C. Dames Funeral Home after over 10 years of dedicated service as Operating Superintendant.

Al is survived by his children, Nick (Katie), and Melanie (Zach); and his three grandchildren, Olivia, Owen and Emi.

He is preceded by his loving wife, Tina (nee Battista) Thompson; his parents, Philip and Ruth Thompson; and his two brothers, David and Richard Thompson.
