Elaine Thornley Obituary

We are sad to announce that on November 9, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Elaine Thornley of North Andover, Massachusetts. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Elaine Thornley to show support.

As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let her loved ones carry forward the torch of her memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of her love and the brilliance of her spirit. Though Elaine may journey beyond the horizon of our sight, her essence remains woven into the very fabric of our being — a guiding light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in the night.

She was predeceased by: her husband Harold "Butch" Sutton Thornley; her parents, Domenic "Dick" Peter Crescenzi and Mary Edna Pearson; and her brother Eugene Crescenzi. She is survived by: her daughter Jennifer (Paul Vieira) of North Reading; and her grandchildren, Domenic of North Reading and Victoria (Samuel Morse) of Lawrence.
