Wayne Thurman Thompson was born June 13, 1926, in Parker County, son of the late Clarence and Loree Rater Thompson. Initially, Wayne made his career in the dairy business after graduating from Texas A&M but soon thereafter went to pharmacy school in Houston and after graduation started his own pharmacy in Weatherford, which he operated for more than 40 years. Until about a month ago, Wayne had been assisting at Davis City Pharmacy.
