10/27 FUNERAL UPDATE by cousin (Olajuwon’s Big bro) OMAR THORNTON:
“Update on my brother’s funeral arrangements. Olajuwon Thornton I have a message as well as a email out to my brother’s last employment, we are having a hard time finding his social security number, this is the last information we needed to put on his death certificate. As far as an arrangements I’ve had a few full meetings from Friday to this morning and certain questions had to be answered and now waiting for return phone calls both from the funeral home as well as the cemetery. After these conversations the date and time will be announced. thank you all who have put in towards the GoFundMe page that was set up for my brother. THE GOFUNDME PAGE WILL STAY UP UNTIL TUESDAY AFTERNOON…… If there’s anyone else for this point on who wants to add anything to help you can contact me directly and we’ll see what can be done. I as well as other family members and Friends of my brother are still in shock. I still can’t believe that this has happened and I still have so many questions, yes an autopsy was performed but those results can take up to 3 months to get back. we are asking questions to those who were around my brother and his last few weeks he was alive. We know that he had just started a job that the people around him really loved him and enjoyed him at work and he was the type of person who was always willing and able to do whatever it took to get the job done. More of his nightlife are his security job there’s not too much information no other than the people that he was around also loved him and enjoyed having him around. But if anybody has any information they may can help us to find more answers of why this young man of 37 had massive heart failure it would be appreciated. once again I’m not saying there’s anything out there that is suspicious, it’s just when things like this happen as sudden as this did, more questions versus answers tends to be the norm. I am 2 hours behind from California so hopefully I’ll have my return calls today and I can put something out towards the end of the night as far as arrangements. Once again God bless you all and take care.”

Since he was done a more detailed autopsy was performed, but those results will take from 30 to 90 days to get results. I just finished up with paperwork with Wilson & Kratger of San Pablo, Ca. I have another meeting with them on Thursday. Part of that discussion, will be arrangements for my brother. If anyone has ideas, thoughts on these arrangements they need to contact me before this meeting. no matter what the arrangements end up being there will be a viewing for him in a later date, this date has not been made yet. I will be contacting his work today, to see if there was any policy that can help with his services. There is a GoFundMe page that has been set up for him if you’re looking to help or contribute you can go into that particular page. Thank and God bless everyone”
