Daddy, I don't know what to say, I have so much going through my head. All I know is that I miss you so much and want you back. Not only were you a great dad, you were also a great friend to so many and really gave back as much as you could. How many people can say that they have never had an enemy, you. I feel that we have grown up together and I am so proud of the man that you became. We have been through good times, hard times, and tragic times but all of this only made our bond stronger....

Laurie, Jennifer and Shawn, I have a lot of fond memories growing up with Kenny. The Eanes Lane Block Kids were so much fun. Kenny always had a good time and a smile on his face. I can still see him racing on his bicycle, throwing the frisbee and playing basketball. God Bless all of you and I am praying for Gods guidance and strength for you at this time.

My love and prayers go to the family during this very difficult time. KT turned me into the Nascar junkie I am today! I will always remember the wonderful things about him and the happiness he always brought to a room. May his love and laughter and kindness live on in the memories we will always carry in our hearts.

KT and Veteran's First
My deepest sympathies are with the Turner family in this time of tragedy, sorrow and grief.Take comfort in knowing Kenny's smiling face and delightful demeanor brought happiness and cheer to all who knew him. From his cooking, to his fishing , to his Karaoke singing, I'll miss it all, but his laughter still rings in my ears. I'll hold each and every memory inside my heart always. No better friend existed outside of heaven. Only KT, could make heaven a better place.
