Beloved Physician Dr. Harry Thompson Dies At 62
Dr. Harry Goff Thompson, family physician and good friend to many Mt. Vernon and Jefferson county residents, for over three decades, died yesterday at 5:25 p.m. at Good Samaritan Hospital. Dr. Thompson, who resided at 324 North 12th street, was 62 years of age. The highly respected and beloved physician — "Dr. Harry" to his legion of friends — had suffered, a heart ailment for the past 17 years but has insisted in maintaining his practice and keeping up an active life among his friends despite the handicap. His condition worsened several weeks ago, perhaps on the night that Dr. Harry was watching "his Mt. Vernon Rams" play football at Belleville. He was an ardent sports fan and team physician for Mt. Vernon athletes since 1945. He rarely missed the chanceto see his boys play football. A Medical Tradition: Dr. Harry carried on his life in the tradition of one of Jefferson county's first and foremost medical families. His father. Dr. Samuel Thompson, "Dr. Sam" to oldtime residents, built and operate
