Like each of his friends, who have remembered him well....So, do I. I just wish that he had not forgotten how much all of us Cared...Really Cared for him...without the pain he was in...now, maybe he can see and remember how much he meant to all of us.....Wendy, Stacy, and I, even though we hadn't seen him in years and years....Always Knew how Special He was/is......

My sincere sympanthy to Dr and Mrs Turner and Janelle

Dear Jenni and Jan - I was saddened to read of Brent's passing in the Voice Tribune from Louisville today- please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this excrutiating time. PLease take care- Elisabeth Long Young (from Cherokee Road)

I knew Brent in NYC for several years. We shared many laughs and some truly great times. There was this really special quality about Brent, a sort of innocence, that you only find in genuine, decent people. I lost touch when I moved abroad quite some time ago. I'll always remember him fondly. My sincere sympathy goes to the family and close friends.

I was fortunate enough to meet Brent when he first moved to New Canaan, CT. He was so bright, handsome, and funny. I will remember him for loving tunafish sandwiches, for his charm and wit, for his love of reading, and for his loveable Southern twang, so rarely heard in New England.

To the entire Turner family,

I remembered Brent from so many years ago, I was a very young girl--he meant so much to my sister, Wendy Sharpe Williams. I am so very sorry for what you are enduring and there are no words, I know, that will your lighten your pain and heavy heart, right now but just know that Brent is with God now, and no longer hurting. I will continue to keep your family in my thoughts and prayers. With Faith, all wounds are healed.

To the entire family,



On behalf of the Connecticut College Community, please accept our condolences on your loss.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Sincerely,



Bridget McShane

I am so sorry to hear of this sad news . It has been years........ However , how could one ever forget Brent ?

I have very fond memories of him when I think back to our Jr. High days in Germantown , TN . He was always a delight to be around . He had a kindness I will always remember.

I am so so sorry to hear of Brents passing. He was a very memorable classmate of mine in junior high school ( Germantown , TN ).He was very kind and always had a genuine sweetness about him.

Dear Jenni, Jan & Jannell,

I am soooo Sorry....Wendy just emailed me. I couldn't believe my eyes as I was reading her words, it didn't seem possible. I can still see him, standing there, that last time I saw him, years and years ago. Such a sweet, nice, kind young man. So handsome, with his true character shining in his eyes....He's Always been one my Favorites, of Wendy's high school friends...I don't know what happened....I never forgot him...He is unforgetable...Good boys like him are....

I'm deeply saddened. Brent and I were friends and neighbors when we were young. He was such a good friend and always made me laugh. Back then I remember how much he loved the University of Kentucky basketball team and the time he introduced me to the sounds of Jethro Tull from Mr. & Mrs. Turner's album collection while I was babysitting Jannell. Brent was always a gentleman around me and I will never forget his kindness, his grin and our childhood friendship. He will always have a special place in my heart. Mr. and Mrs. Turner and Jannell, please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely, Wendy Sharpe Williams

My heart is heavy. Much love to all of the Turners.

I, too, was a pledge brother of Brent's. He was a great guy and I am sorry to hear of his passing way too early. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and the family.

It is hard to remember Brent without smiling; he was a guy that brought smiles and laughter to all those around him. I will miss him but will always remember him.

Dear Jan and Jenni,

Our Prayers and thoughts are with you at this most difficult time. Chuck and Susan Shaw Treibly

I knew Brent at Alabama and always enjoyed playing basketball with him as well as his easy going personality. It is always hard losing a young person such as Brent, but maybe he has found his eternal peace.

God Bless you Brother. May you live forever in the light of God.

Jenni, Jan and Jannell



My heart goes out to you during this sorrow. Brent meant a lot to the whole family and will be deeply missed. He will never be forgotten.
