To the editor:

The Thornburgh family would like to express deep gratitude to our community. Hundreds have reached out to us and offered sympathy and support upon learning of Ross’ passing. He truly loved his life here because of his associations within our community – with each of you.

Please join us: A celebration of Ross Thornburgh’s Life will be held from 2 to 5 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 9 at the Pleasant Beach Manor House.
