THOMPSON, William Alfred (Bill) - It is with heavy hearts the family of William Alfred "Bill" Thompson announces his passing, which occurred on Wednesday, April 7, 2021, at the Saint John Regional Hospital. Born November 6, 1934, he was the son of the late William and Mabel (McCarthy) Thompson and husband of Blanche (Greer) Thompson.
