Dean S. Thornock (1924-2014) was Mormon serviceman in the United States Navy during World War II.

Dean Stewart Thornock was born to Heber and Wanda Thornock in Salem, Idaho on May 19, 1924. After his childhood, he married LuJean Robinson in 1944. Three weeks after their marriage, he served in the Navy during World War II as a constructor of airstrips in the Phillipines and, once he returned home, he spent his time with limited funds living in a trailer in Grandview, Idaho. For the next 30 years, he managed to work as the local barber in the community, worked for the Colonial Theater running the movie projector, and even started a water company "Rainwater" in 1965. He and his wife were married for 69 years and had six children.

Thornock died on January 30, 2014 in Mabton, Washington.

After growing up, she soon married her husband Dean Thornock in 1944 three weeks before he was deployed to the Philippines to build airstrips during World War II. As she lived with her family, she and Dean had six children, worked in various positions in the Grandview community including at the Grandway Drug Store, a Tupperware salesperson, and at Libby's. She also was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where she served in many callings. After 69 years of marriage, Dean died in 2014 and she shortly moved to Roy, Utah--where she died a year later.
