“I wrote you one letter today, but I just received ten more from you, so I’ll write now too. I hope you understand, Honey, just why you haven’t been hearing. Being on our way to Iwo Jima all that time. See?
Remember, Honey, when you don’t hear from me, its because I can’t write, not don’t want to, because when I’m not writing to you, I’m thinking of you.”

“He was every inch the eccentric artist whose final request to his daughter was that he be cremated and his ashes placed in a cave over the side of the top of Mt. Hosmer. This place, with its striking view of the river, had been a favorite play spot for Thornton as a young boy growing up in Lansing. However, since the entrance of this cave was precariously placed, daughter Emily simply scattered his ashes to the four winds, from the cliff.” from Kickapoo Free Press

” I was struck by the professionalism in the building and grounds—the barn is concrete-floored, specially designed—not a converted tobacco shed, which is what often passes for a horse stable around here.

The smell is that of a well cleaned and maintained stable.” from Kickapoo Free Press, September, 2009
