WARE SHOALS - Boyce P. Lancaster, Jr., Registered Pharmacist, went to join his Savior, Jesus Christ on November 1, 2013 and to reunite with his deceased wife of 66 years, Montine Hite Lancaster, who died earlier this year.
Born on January 27, 1927 in Union County, SC, he was the son of the late Boyce P., Sr. and Alice Sams Lancaster. He was a veteran of the US Navy from World War II.
Mr. Lancaster owned and operated West End Drugs, Inc. in Ware Shoals for some 49 years and prior to coming to Ware Shoals, he worked as a pharmacist in Union County and in Columbia. He graduated from the School of Pharmacy at the University of South Carolina in 1954.

His compassion for his neighbors, friends, and customers was shown everyday. He often opened his store to fill prescriptions, even in the wee hours of the morning.
