Locals in the 52-year-old’s community plan to gather together and stand in solidarity with her loved ones on Friday evening.
A Facebook event reads: “In response to the tragic and very sudden death of Lisa Thompson, we as a community feel we should get together and show solidarity with her heartbroken family and friends.
“We would like to invite you to come together to remember Lisa with a minute silence and candlelit vigil.”
The event will take place from 5.30pm to 6.30 on Friday outside Axis, an arts and community resource centre located in the heart of Ballymun which houses a number of community development organisations.
Ms Thompson lived in Ballymun for all of her life and was known for her work in youth centres as well as being a devoted mum.
Her heartbroken cousin Nicola Thompson said she was “a kind-hearted woman” who would do “anything for anyone”.
She added: “She always kept to herself. So unfair, I’m in total shock.”
Mark Fitzpatrick said his friend was a “harmless, kind and loving person”.
On social media, he wrote: “Anytime we needed anything you were always there.
“What a wonderful lady you really were Lisa. We love you and you will be sadly missed and never forgotten by all of us. RIP fairy godmother.”
Taoiseach Micheal Martin also addressed the murder in the Dail last week.
He said: “I want to extend my deepest sympathies to the family of Lisa Thompson following her horrific murder.
“Significant new measures have been brought in in terms of sentencing, in terms of powers to the gardai and also in respect to gardai bringing many people to justice as a result of the committal of these crimes.”
