Mark Paul Thompson

Mark Paul Thompson passed away peacefully at this home in Powells Point, NC on Monday, August 1, 2022.  He was 64 years old.

Mark always wore a brilliant smile and shared it with everyone he met.  His smile, kindness, and positive outlook gave every day the chance to be his best day ever.

Mark grew up in the Virginia Beach area, but he spent most of his adult life on the Outer Banks, NC.  He was an avid hunter and fisherman; he also enjoyed playing golf and was an aspiring chef in recent years. 

Mark could easily keep you entertained for hours with stories about good times with family and friends and hours spent in the woods and on the water.  However, his favorite stories were about cherished moments with his daughter Mary whom he loved beyond words and his cat “mittens”.  There is no doubt that the happiest moments in his life were with Mary; her smile, her laugh, her hugs, and her accomplishments all brought him such joy and pride.

Mark was preceded in death by his parents, William and Louise Thompson, brother Barry and nephew, Josh.  Left to cherish his memories are his daughter Mary, grand-dog Sophie; brothers Bruce and Keith (Debbie), and many nephews, great-nephews, and great-niece.
