Unbeknownst to Tish, God led her home to Texas (her birthplace) for an amazing journey. When she got to Texas one of the first things she did was attend a Bible Study on Wednesday Evening.  She was not a believer and the only reason she went back to church on Sunday was because she feared her brother Larry was in a cult. Well, that morning at church her Pastor Herman Mattox (& now long time friend) told the congregation "all you need is a mustard seed of faith in Jesus Christ" and she thought well heck (not her direct word) "I can do that!" And the rest is history. After placing her faith in Jesus Christ the Holy Spirit began to work in her life taking her from a rough around the edges truck driver to an inspiring witness for Christ. Soon after becoming a believer God brought Herbalife into her life and she became the first distributor in Texas. Through Herbalife she was able to share the love of God and the Gospel of Christ with thousands of people. Through hard work and dedication to God and Herbalife her inspiration has spanned across the globe.

Tish was a remarkable person.  Her trust in God created a light within and with her genuine, humble, gracious, funny and say it like it was personality people were drawn to her. She was admired, respected, and loved by many.

Tish is preceded in death by her parent's Raymond & Thelma Thompson; brothers Lonnie & Johnnie Thompson; nephews Robbie, Phillip, & Danny Thompson; sisters in law Hazel Thompson & Alta Thompson; brother in law Jim Veatch. She is survived by her two daughters LeAnn Campbell & her husband Ron of Madera, CA and Leslee Jensen & her husband Jerry of Sadler, TX; sister Wanda Veatch of Madera, CA; brother Larry Thompson & his wife Taylor of Prosper, TX and numerous nieces and nephews.
