John William Thornton Sr.

Dear Mary Pat,
My heart is heavy after receving news of Sparky's passing into eternal life from Campionforever.
John and I played football together at Campion. It was either I or Russ Skall who gave him his nick name Sparky. I don't remember for sure as its been a long time ago. I will remember him in my prayers daily and may his soul rest in peace.
Yours Truly,
Bob Bush " Campion 46"

To Jane and your family:
Your father was a very special man who always had a smile on his face and a kind word for all. He was always offering advice and assisting in any way he could. I have gotten to know you better over the past couple of years and you are all truly remarkable people and I know why Mr. Thornton was always proud of all of you. With my deepest sympathy and love. Cindy

Dear Thornton Family,

I was saddened to hear about the death of your father, John. He could certainly be proud of all of his own accomplishments as well as those of his children. There was a line in the movie "Braveheart" which said, "the way you live your life echos through eternity." John's life will continue to echo. My sympathy to all.
Love, Kathy

Dear Debbie, John, Jane, Mike and Mary Pat;

I wanted you to know that John Sr. is in my prayers, as are all of you. We never realize just how short our life can be. As a cancer survivor, I know first hand that it can be very hard. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Love
Beth Hartnett-Murphy
