Dexter Thorn, 71, passed away on November 12, 2025. Dexter was a beloved son, brother, father, and a great friend to everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. His warm spirit, quick humor, and generous heart made him someone people were naturally drawn to.

Dexter had a deep love for the simple joys of life. If given the choice, he'd always pick a fishing rod in his hand or a seat at a UT game. Those who knew him will remember his easy laugh, his loyalty, and the way he made every moment feel a little lighter.

He is preceded in death by his mother, Beryl Wenger, and his father, James Rufus (JR) Thorn. He is survived by his daughter, Shelby Thorn of Granite Shoals, Texas, and his brother, Craig Thorn of Plano, Texas.

Dexter leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness, and unforgettable moments. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
