Bo Turner Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Woodlawn Funeral Home - Mount Holly on Mar. 8, 2026.
William "Bo" Turner, Jr., 71, passed away on Friday, March 6, 2026. He was born in Greer, SC, son of the late Foster Roscoe and Shelby Edward Bonds. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his siblings, Linda Vilbert and Larry Roscoe.
Bo is survived by his companion for over 30 years, Wanda Swanger; his children, Blaine Turner Corthren (James), Tabitha Swanger, Kelly McSwain (Carmen), and Jamie McSwain; his grandchildren, Hudson, Spencer, Luke, Lily, Ryder, Kayla, Brianna, Aaron, Hannah, Noah, and Rosie; his sister, Kathy Turner; his brothers, Tim Roscoe, Charles Roscoe, and Danny Roscoe; and a number of nieces and nephews.
Bo enjoyed his grandchildren the most and watching them grow up. They always could force a smile out of him. You could always find Bo reading the newspaper, watching a John Wayne movie, or cheering on the Panthers!
"Bo, I loved you then, I love you now, and I'll love you forever!" -Wanda
"You told me on your last day that I was and will be the love of your life. Well dad, you will always be my first love that can never be altered. I love you dad, more than words can express, and you will live in my heart forever!" -Blaine
Services for Mr. Turner will be private.
