It had been many years since I had seen Ed untill last year at Bryan's
wedding. He was joyful and with a smile on his face. Macky told me how close all of you are and how much fun you had with each other and that in itself is a blessing from above.
I am so sorry for your lost, but aren't memories of yesterday wonderfull. He will never be lost to you because he will always be in your heart.

To all the Turner family, to all the sisters as well. Bo Bo and I are cousins and although we didn't see each other very often in the later years, I often thought of Bo Bo Mackie and Burns and the other siblins as well. We grew up in our early years in Friendfield, S. C. and went to some of the same schools. Later we didn't get to see the Turner family very often. But in the summer of 2007, Mackie and Bo Bo came to the Foxworth family reunion in Pamplico. It was so great to see them both since I had not seen them in many years. Then in Dec. 2007, uncle Wallace Foxworth passed away in Mount Pleasant, S. C. and they both came to the visitation. It was so good to see them again. I didn't know that Bo Bo was sick and could not tell it by the way he seemed to be feeling. I want to thank Mackie for bringing Bo Bo to that visitation. Had it not been for her, I would never have had the chance to see him for the last time. I wished that over the years that we could have had a much closer relationship. But one of these days, we will meet him in Heaven. We want to send our sympothy to all of the family.We want them to know that all of the family will be in our prayers.

Kevin, Brent and Family, Not sure if you remember us or not. We met several years ago while visiting our Aunt Anne in Georgia..We went to a family gathering at Jeannene and Jeb's and remember your dad being a kind and gentle person. Aunt Anne called us and told us that your dad had passed away. We were sadden to hear this news. Please know that the entire Turner family is in our thoughts and prayers.
