Richard Turner Obituary
Richard graduated from Ashbrook High School and enlisted in the United States Navy. He proudly
served his country from March 1984 to March 1988 where he traveled the world. Following his military service he joined Okuma America where he worked as a skilled engineer for 30 years and continued his love of travel. He made many friends all over the world through his work and was awarded the prestigious Okuma Founders Award for his impeccable service. He was an avid Clemson Tigers fan, enthusiastic music lover, tennis player, and golfer. He enjoyed entertaining his many friends and grilling by the pool to his favorite music. He took joy in walking his daughter Kalyn down the aisle to marry the love of her life, and was especially proud of Emilee's artistic talent. Richard will be fondly remembered for his loving and easy going spirit, his smile, kind personality, quick wit and intelligence.
A funeral service will be live streamed at 1:30 p.m. on Monday April 27, 2020 by Greene Funeral Home.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date when Corona Virus Restrictions are lifted.
Memorials may be made to Wounded Warrior Project, https://support.woundedwarriorproject.org.

So sorry to hear of Richards passing. I worked with him at Okuma until 1997, always a fun (and funny) guy to work him. Prayers for his family...
