Randall Thompson

Randall Thompson, 77, of Dill City, Oklahoma, passed away peacefully in the comfort of his home on November 4, 2026. Randall was born on March 22, 1949, in Elk City, Oklahoma, to C.W. and Frances Thompson.

A proud Vietnam veteran, Randall honorably served his country in the United States Marine Corps. Following his military service, he returned home and married the love of his life, Louise. Together, they built a beautiful life, sharing 55 years of marriage and raising three daughters who were blessed to call him Dad.

Randall was a hardworking and dedicated man who spent 43 years working primarily in the tire and service station industry. He retired from the Bessie CO-OP in 2014 after many years of faithful service. When he wasn't working, Randall enjoyed fishing, camping, gardening, and woodworking. One of his favorite things was taking Louise out to try new restaurants. It didn't matter where they went, as long as they were together.

Randall was known for his loving heart, wonderful sense of humor, and just the right amount of orneriness. He had a way of making people laugh and bringing smiles to those around him. Beneath that playful, ornery side was a man with a heart of gold who loved his family beyond measure.

Above all else, Randall was a family man. There was nothing he wouldn't do for the people he loved, especially his beloved wife and three daughters. He was their protector, their provider, their biggest supporter, and a constant source of love and strength. Through his actions, he showed his daughters what a loving husband and devoted father should be. He didn't just tell his family he loved them; he showed them every day in the way he lived his life. The love Randall had for Louise was something truly special. Through 55 years of marriage, they shared a lifetime of memories, laughter, and love. His devotion to her and their family was a beautiful example of what it means to love wholeheartedly and stand by those who mean the most.

Randall was preceded in death by his parents, C.W. and Frances Thompson; and his four brothers, Carroll Thompson, Dale Thompson, Jim Thompson, and Don Thompson.

He is survived by his loving wife of 55 years, Louise Thompson of Dill City, Oklahoma; his three daughters, Bobbie Barnett of Dill City, Oklahoma, Teri Fry and husband Bobby of Sentinel, Oklahoma, and Tracy Hamlett and husband Daniel of Dill City, Oklahoma; and his sister, Polly Thompson of Dill City, Oklahoma.

He also leaves behind seven grandchildren: Kayla Little, Randall Barnett and wife Kimmy, Harley Barnett, Frank DeLeon and wife Zoe, Alison DeLeon, Justin Hamlett, and Hunter Hamlett. Randall was blessed with 13 great-grandchildren: Carsyn, Ulric, Alister, Niklaus , Audriana, Waylon, Hartlynn, Presley, Willow, Lyla, Royce, Joey, and Rico & one on the way

He also leaves behind a host of extended family members and dear friends who will forever cherish his memory.

Randall leaves behind a legacy far greater than words can express. It is a legacy of love, laughter, hard work, and unwavering devotion to family. He was the kind of man who made his family feel safe, loved, and cared for, and the example he set as a husband and father will continue to guide those he leaves behind.

While his family will forever miss his laughter, his ornery ways, and the comfort of having him near, they will carry his love with them always. His greatest accomplishment wasn't measured by the years he worked or the things he owned, but by the family he loved so deeply and the beautiful life he built with them.

He was deeply loved, and he will be deeply missed.

There will be a celebration of life with military honors at Grace Baptist Church in Dill City, Tuesday November 10th @ 2:00
