Kings Mountain

Monty Thornburg

Age: 47

Father: Fred Thornburg (87)

Community Involvement: Cleveland County Children’s Home Board; Life Enrichment Center Advisory Board - Secretary; Kings Mountain Baptist Church - Treasurer; Kings Mountain Housing Authority Commissioner

Job: Director of Aging for the City of Kings Mountain; part-time embalmer at Harris Funeral Home

Has lived in town since: 1960 - 47 years (all my life)

I live here because ... “I was born here and it’s a good community to work in.”

My hometown is special because ... “of the friendly people who live here.”

My favorite thing about my town is ... “the community involvement I see in the area.”

If I ever left, the thing I would miss most is ... “the small town friendliness.”

The future of my town is ... in need of constructive planned growth. There needs to be a plan in place for the growth that doesn’t overshadow the good things in the community.
