Jackie R.B. Thompson, 72, of Demorest, passed away on Tuesday, November 4th, 2025, peacefully surrounded by family. Born on April 2, 1953, Jackie was the oldest child of the late R.B. Thompson and Geneva Shirley. He was a man of Holiness Faith, steadfast values, and a deep, abiding love for his family and friends.
Jackie was known for his big heart, his love of big trucks and motorcycles, and his giving nature. He found joy on the open road, in the roar of an engine, and in quiet moments spent with those he loved. More than anything, Jackie loved his children—they were his greatest blessing and the light of his life. His pride in his family was evident to everyone who knew him.
He was preceded in death by his wife, April Smith Thompson; his son, Joey Thompson; great-grandchild, Draven Ju
