Due to the State of Georgia’s restrictions due to the Corona Virus outbreak, all current services for Mr. Thornton will be private. We sincerely regret that services could not be carried out as planned, but we have no choice but to comply with State of Georgia’s mandates concerning this. Interment will be in Barrow Memorial Gardens. A Memorial Service for Mr. Thornton will be held at a later time and date.
