Douglas Edward Rev. Turner

Some of my fondest childhood memories where with Doug and the Turners. Thank you for filling my childhood with fond and wholesome memories, I will never forget what an awesome influence you were on me. My sincerest condolences to the Turners, I miss you all.

Doug was a true servant of God! It did not matter what religion or belief you held, he was always there for you no matter the circumstance! A TRUE FRIEND INDEED!!!!!! May God bless the Turners.

Dear Daphne, I am so sorry for your loss. I can't believe it has been almost 30 years since I met Doug, when he came to study Hebrew with me at the JCC in Pittsburgh with Reverends Doug Patterson and Howard Burrell. What a lot of fun we had, and how much we enjoyed the get-togethers we had with spouses included. So much laughter. Michael joins me in sending our condolences, he was a lovely man.

We had Doug in our Sunday Schol class in Wellesley Baptist Church, Wellesley, Mass., and have fond and lasting memories of him during those high school years. We appreciated his brother and sister, as well as his mother, church organist, and his father's [Phil's] humor. We are saddened, but thankful for a live well served in the service of God and Christ Jesus our Lord. -- Carol and Fred Miller, Glen Ellyn, Illinois, formerly of Needham, Mass. for 12 years ending in 1979.

I enjoyed our time together singing in the Pittsburgh Concert Chorale, and I am sure that many other Chorale members join in sending condolences to Daphne and family members whom we do not know, since we shared only one facet of his many-faceted life.

What a beautiful obituary for a beautiful man. He gave His all to those less fortunate. The Blueberry Hill residents with sickness loved Doug. He always had time to visit the sick. It didn't matter what their religion was. He was loved. He was someone who lived as Jesus told us to. It was a privledge to have known Him.

We will miss your smiling face and wonderful kindnesses, cousin. You left us so soon, but you will continue to carry on with God's work.
Love you,
The Hilchey Family

So very sad to hear of Pastor Turners passing. He was a wonderful man and my family and myself will never forget all the times he was there for us. He performed my son's and my brother's weddings also performed my niece's christening and was there for us when our loved ones had passed on. Rest in peace Doug you will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to Daphne and the rest of his family.

We will never forget the years of friendship and spiritual support from both Doug and Daphne. Doug performed our joyous wedding. With his beautiful tenor voice I am sure that he is singing in the heavenlies.
Love from Amy and Vince.
