My condolences to the Turner family. Frank mentored and guided many of my friends. Whenever you came to the Y his voice and advice was clear. Rest in peace Mr. T.

Sending my deepest condolences and prayers to the Turner Family πŸ•ŠοΈπŸ™πŸ•ŠοΈ Sharon Green and Family

Our deepest condolences to the family of Frank W. Turner. We are so sad to hear about his passing. Our parents Everette and Sue Tyson, were close friends with Cora & Frank. They all went to school together. I remember him well. He was kind and always friendly. The Turner's would come to our house, and bring Adrianne & Ricky to play with us. My parents had five girls, so Ricky felt out numbered, but Adrianne would jump right in and play "Barbie's" with us and we'd have the best time. Even though we're here in California. Our Love and Prayers are with you all. May GOD provide the family with love, strength and all of the comfort; they will need during this difficult time of bereavement. Many blessings from The Tyson's: Deloris Sue Tyson, Renee Jennings, Deneen Tyson, Anita T. Spence & Annette T. Chavez.

Sending our prayers and love to Mrs. Cora, Adrienne, Ricky and the entire family during this difficult time. May God comfort you now and in the days to come. We love you all!β€οΈπŸ™πŸΎ The Nance & Pegues Families
