Robert Dee “Big Robb” Thompson

October 1, 2024

Robert Dee Thompson “Big Robb”, 36, of Frankfort unexpectedly passed away on Tuesday October 1, 2024.  Born in Frankfort IN on November 10, 1987 to Robert and Kimberly (Hall) Thompson.

Robb lived a life filled with love, laughter and kindness. He was known for his willingness to help anyone and his big heart.   Robb was a devoted and loving father, son, brother, uncle, pappy and a cherished friend. Robb attended Frankfort High School. He was known for being the guy you could always turn to. He worked alongside his father in the family business “The Wizards Auto Detailing”.  Aside from work, Robb enjoyed all things outdoors, one of his favorite hobbies being fishing and riding ATV’s. He enjoyed spending time with his family most of all. But if you asked him, nothing compared to being a dad and pappy.

He never looked for praise, he was never one to boast, he just went on quietly working for the ones he loved the most. His dreams were seldom spoken, his wants were very few and most of the time his worries were unspoken too. He was there, a firm foundation through all our storms of life, a sturdy hand to hold on to in times of stress and doubt. A true friend we could turn to when times were good or bad. One of our greatest blessings, the man that we called… Big Robb.

    There was a time me and Rob spent every day together. Out tearing up the back country roads on dirt bikes spending time down by the ponds with his son, RC cars and fishing poles. Getting to know and spend time with Robin and his family such an honor to be able to be a part of his life. He’ll be loved and missed and there will be that day and we’re all back together.
