In Loving Memory
Of Our Son
Bradley Taylor Thornton
Feb. 13, 1986 ~ June 8, 2003
This site is dedicated in memory of our 17 yr. old son Bradley who was killed in a single car accident along with his friend Keith.
On a late rainy Sat. night June 7, 2003 Bradley and Keith were passengers in a car driven by another teen driving to fast. The sheriff's dept calulated her speed to be atleast 69.5 in a 45 mph zone. The driver lost control going into a curve on William Few Parkway in Appling Georgia. The car slid sideways over 265 ft. slammed into a tree, spun around up an incline and caught fire. Bradley and Keith died in the fire. I was never told of any attempts to get them out. The driver lived with only minor injuries. The driver was already breaking the law by having passengers in the first 6 months of having a license. She only had her license 11 days. Bradley and Keith were friends for 11 yrs.
Bradley was a rising senior at Evans High School. He was on the football team and was in JROTC.
The Senior Class of 2004 voted Bradley as the most unforgettable male. Bradley planned on going into the military after graduation.
Bradley is survived by his parents Ernest and Kris Thornton, bother Gregory Thornton, and his uncle Mike Thornton.
