Thomas Jefferson "T.J." Horn of Benton, Kentucky passed away peacefully at the Ray and Kay Eckstein Hospice Care Center with his family by his side on Sunday, June 20th, 2021.

T. J. was born in Jackson, Tennessee on Tuesday, October 1st, 1946 to the late Henry Horn and Georgia Lee Bonds. On October 27th, 1966, T.J. married the love of his life, Romona Landon of Benton. T.J. went right to work out of high school, and in 1976, he joined the United Steelworkers and began working for General Tire Company where after many years of hard work he later retired in 2006.

T.J. had a big heart for every member of his large family. There's no question T.J. is smiling ear to ear with his firstborn grandchild, the late Landon Lovett. T.J. never missed a softball or basketball game, and you could almost always guarantee that he would arrive to any event at least two hours early. All of his friends and loved ones knew exactly where to find T.J. during a Marshall County basketball game in the Reed Conder Gymnasium, and he rarely (if ever) missed a Cats game or a NASCAR race. T.J. had a profound love for mowing yards and detailing cars, which was evident by his own pristine yard and vehicles.

In addition to his wife Romona, T.J. is survived by his two daughters, Lisa Lovett and Trent, and Melanie Tynes and Tony, all of Benton; four grandchildren, whom he deeply adored, Gage Tynes and wife Kelsey, Tucker Lovett, Greer Tynes and Gabbi Lovett, all of Benton; his sister, Carolyn Culp of Mayfield; and his brother, Billy Bonds of Fredonia. T.J. will also be missed by several nieces, nephews and cousins.

T.J. is preceded in death by his sister, Martha Ann Rudd; his brother, Harold Horn; one granddaughter, Landon Lovett; and his parents.

Expressions of sympathy may take the form of donations to the Landon Lovett Memorial Fund, c/o Trent Lovett, 104 Masters Circle, Benton, KY 42025.

Funeral services will be held at 2:00 PM on Friday, June 25th, 2021 at Filbeck-Cann Funeral Home with Bro. Joel Frizzell officiating. Burial will follow at Benton Cemetery.

Visitation will be held from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM on Friday, June 25th, 2021 at Filbeck-Cann Funeral Home.
