Larry Dewayne Thornton, age 67, of Tuscumbia, Alabama, passed away on December 20, 2025.
Larry was born on November 17, 1958. He was a devoted husband, loving father, proud Pop, and a loyal friend to those fortunate enough to know him. His greatest joy came from his family, whom he loved deeply and fiercely.
Larry shared 47 years of marriage with his beloved wife, Katy Thornton, a partnership built on love, commitment, and devotion. He is also survived by his daughters, Misty Thornton and April Burnett; his son-in-law, Lawrence Burnett; and his cherished and only granddaughter, Khloe Burnett, who held a very special place in his heart.
A lifelong Alabama football fan, Larry took great pride in cheering on the Crimson Tide, finding joy in game days and sharing that passion with those around him.
He will be remembered most for the love he gave so freely—as a husband, a dad, a Pop, and a friend. His memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
Larry will be cremated at Colbert Memorial Gardens. In accordance with his wishes, there will be no public service or viewing, with arrangements limited to immediate family.
