Prayers always to William, Rickey, and Fred. I remember Mr. Thornton as being a kind man. He made sure his children experience life. When we ran track in middle school, he made sure we had transportation to and from school. He was a father figure to William and Rickey's friends. When it was time to find summer jobs as teenagers, he knew who was hirings. He will be missed
