One of the nicest, kindest, caring and devoted husbands I have ever met. I don't recall him ever saying an unkind word about anyone. I will truly miss his presence in the choirs at Flipper Temple, the caring touch he always showed to Mrs. Threatt and his helpful hands around the church for whatever was needed. Rest in Peace.

Dr. Threatt was my 7th grade teacher in Pine Mountain, Georgia many, many years ago as he began his teaching career. I remember him as a sincere and dedicated teacher. He boarded in our home for a while which meant that my siblings and I had to walk a narrow path at school and at home. He was an inspiration to me and I give him the credit for my success in the educational arena. He will certainly be missed. To Mrs Threatt and family: You have my sincere condolences. My God grant you peace and comfort during this most difficult time. Love you!

May the precious memories and the beautiful life that you shared, console you and give you peace. We have fond memories of the wonderful times shared with Dr. Threatt and you, charter members of the Friendship Force of Greater Atlanta (FFGA), Southwest branch. We appreciated the dedicated service of Dr. Threatt serving as our longtime Treasurer. We will miss his presence, wisdom, gentle spirit, leadership and friendship. We recall his loving attention and devoted care shown toward his lovely wife, Mrs. Helen. He was a gentle giant, loving husband, outstanding leader, profound educator, devout Christian and servant who served his college, church and community with excellence. He left an indelible mark on those who were blessed by his presence and touched by his life. Well-done- Good and faithful servant…You earned your crown!

I served under Dr. Threatt when he was president of the East Point AARP Chapter. Never has there been such a compassionate and gentle man as he. We can all take comfort in knowing his soul has found rest and the lyrics "...When the Saints go marching in..." has more meaning than ever.
I will miss you, Dr. Threatt, and will never forget your kindness toward me.
