Thomas Thompson

Tommy (Thomas) Thompson passed away on November 8, 2021.  He was born on June 2, 1931 in Prescott, AZ. 

He is survived by his daughter, Connie Kay Thompson, two grandsons Robert and Ehron Aragon, and a great-granddaughter Breanna Dion all of Prescott.  Tommy was preceded in death by his son, Thomas Edward Thompson III in 2009 and three wives, Jana, Betty and Betty. 

Tommy was part of a 5-generation Prescott/Mayer family.  His great grandfather came from Scotland and settled in the area in the late 1800’s, making several family members Prescott Pioneers. Tommy was drafted in 1951 and spent 23 months in the U.S. Army rising to the rank of First Sergeant.  He was on the front lines in Korea for 11 months and was in the first ever racially integrated platoon, of which he was very proud.  After the war he was a bronc and bull rider for a couple of years during which time he signed on with the Santa Fe Railroad.  He retired after 45 years as a locomotive engineer.
