Willow Thorne Obituary
Willow Cera Thorne, age 3 months, passed away Thursday, September 12, 2024 at Mission Hospital in Asheville.
She was born June 3, 2024 in Marion. Willow was a very happy baby who had a smile that would melt your heart. She would always smile when someone said “I love you.” She had the most beautiful sky-blue eyes. Willow recently started cooing and growling which brought her family great joy. She enjoyed cuddles and soft things. She will be deeply missed.
Left to cherish her memory are her parents, Timothy Michael Blake Thorne and Evelyn Brooke Lowery; two brothers, Jax and Liam; grandparents, Becky Roper, Michael Thorne, and Cindy Sigmon; and aunts and uncles, Levi Lowery, Brandon Burleson, Skyler Thorne, Alexis Thorne, and Gage Thorne.
The family will receive friends on Friday, September 20, 2024 from 2:00 until 3:00 p.m. in the Chapel of Beam Funeral Service. A memorial service will immediately follow at 3:00 p.m. with Pastor Jeff Duncan officiating.
2170 Rutherford Rd, Marion, NC 28752
