An outstanding musician, a distinguished educator, a first-class ambassador of the Pueri Cantores organization and, above all, a man of faith like no other, Father Thompson—as he was known to the 4,000 choir boys he worked with—had a profound impact on anyone who crossed his path.
Musicien exceptionnel, éducateur émérite, ambassadeur hors pair du mouvement des Pueri Cantores, mais surtout homme de foi à nul autre pareil, M. l'abbé, comme se plaisait à l'appeler les 4 000 Petits chanteurs ayant eu la chance de le côtoyer, a marqué profondément chacune des personnes que la vie a placée sur sa route.
