WEST ASHLEY, SC – On June 27, 2024, Kevin Victor Thornley passed away at the age of 46, surrounded by his family and loved ones. Born October 1, 1977, Kevin lived a life filled with infectious joy and unwavering love. He turned ordinary moments into unforgettable memories with his charming wit and comedic warmth. He was dedicated, hardworking and humble, and will forever be remembered by the countless lives impacted by his humor, compassion and friendship.
Kevin graduated from College of Charleston in 2005 with a Bachelors Degree in Accounting and Finance. Most recently, Kevin served as an accountant for the Medical University of South Carolina.
Kevin was a devoted husband and father, leaving behind his high-school sweetheart and wife of 21 years, Michelle McLeod Thornley, as well as his two children, Ava, 16, and James, 13, whom he loved deeply and of whom he was enormously proud. Kevin beamed with great pride celebrating the achievements of his children and the strong, ambitious and hilarious (of course) young adults they had become. We have faith he will look down upon his family every step of the way and continue to cover them with love.
Kevin is survived by his father, George Thornley (Diana); brother, Christopher Thornley (Alison); sister, Anna Catherine Thornley Miller (Andrew), sister-in-law, Carrie McLeod Algeo (Josh), 21 additional younger siblings and four nieces. In addition, Kevin is survived by his two dogs, Augustus and Winston. Kevin is predeceased by his mother, Shelby Boggs Thornley, and his beloved and adored fur baby, Danielle.
A Funeral Service for family and friends will take place graveside on Tuesday, July 2 at 11:00 a.m. at LIVE OAK MEMORIAL GARDENS, located at 3093 Ashley River Road, Charleston 29414, the Rev. Alfred T.K. Zadig, Jr. officiating.
