Mr. Thornton was the asst. Band Director at Forest Brook High School when I attended, but I also have the pleasure of working with him from 1992 to the present. The "MOTOWN and MORE REVIEW" is one of the annual productions performed at the Miller's Outdoor Theatre in Houston and has the largest audience. The reason is: A live orchestra and the top singers and dancers of Houston are casted in this production yearly. Why is the orchestra so wonderful? Mr. Sam Jackson selects some of the top Band Directors in houston to form his orchestra. Mr. Thornton is one of the musicians. I speak on behalf of the Producers Mr. and Mrs. Clarence and Shirley Whitmore, myself, Gretchen Jean (the choreographer) and the whole Motown family. Our prayers are with the Thornton family ! We hope for a speedy recovery!

If I recall it stated that the other discussion was going to be closed because he is still fighting for his life. But I wanted a special prayer from a special group and I have the right. Thank you for the advice but I am asking for you to hold your negative comments in a situation like this.

What was negative about my comment? All I said was a thread was already made. You could've made a response in that thread. And no...that thread was not about to be closed.

Mr. Thorton meant so much to us and will be truly missed. Since you are a personal friend of the family let them know that we will keep them in our prayers.

Thanks, Motion Coach, we needed all the prayers we could get to lift up Mrs. Thornton and Ronald, Jr. today. This has been an extremely rough day (full of grief) for us that knew the family personally... Rest in Peace, Mr. Thornton.
