Robert "Bobby" Arthur Turner

You left this place too soon You left a lot of buddies behind. Hopefully you went to the right place. It was great working with you at Fish and also being a roommate at Sam Houston State. Those were the GOOD times. Will miss seeing you and your smiling face.

BOO

Rest in sweet heavenly peace Mr. T....

Bobby "BT" as most of Scranton PA knew him by, was a great man and good friend, We spent many of summers in the Scranton area working and having fun on the weekends. He will truly be missed. My thoughts and prayers to all his family and friends. Rest in Peace BT.

Robbie.

Sorry I didn't know any of Bobby's family, but wanted to let all of you know how sorry I am. I loved seeing the video and how young he looked in some of the pictures--that's how I remember him. He came to H-J when I was in High School, but I didn't have him as a teacher. I called him "Mr. Turner" then, but "Bobby" in later years when he was a friend to my classmates (Ricky & Billy Bob). I will always remember seeing that yellow Corvette coming off of Barfield St. where he lived and heading out to who knows where--off on some adventure or just out for a ride. From a fellow arrowhead hunter--ride on Bobby!

Thoughts and prayers with the Turner Family,
Good Bless

Bobby Turner a good person with always a big smile who became a long time friend back in the 1980's working at the Empire Sanitary Landfill with the team

hard worker who cared deeply abut his family and fishing

Bobby happy fishing in heaven my friend

My thoughts and prayers go out to Mr. T's family and friends.

When I look back on my high school years, I always think of Bobby. He was such a wonderful teacher and friend to all who's lives he touched. His drafting classes were the most memorable. He was always so patient and helpful but in a way that made you plot your own course to a successful solution.

And then there was his yellow Corvette. That car and Mr. T were meant to be together...and it showed. I remember passing by the apartments he lived in on several occasions and saw him outside washing and taking care of his yellow baby.

RIP

Enjoyed being in his mechanical drafting class @ Hardin-Jefferson HS in the 1977-78 school year. Cool guy. That yellow Corvette. I'm sorry to hear of his passing. Condolences to his family and loved ones.

We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude. Bobby Turner was the kindest person and the best teacher, he believed in us..helping us mature to the next plateau with his gentle tugs and pushes with that sparkle in his blue eyes. The things he wrote on the blackboard of life for us can never be erased. God bless you Bobby Turner-this saddens me greatly..May peace be with your family ALWAYS!

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Bobby's family and friends. I am proud that he and I were able to share our time together in Uvalde. He is truly missed and it is comforting to know that he is in a better place. May you Rest in Peace my friend!!

Sincerely,

Greg and Joland Bourgeois

I have great memories of being in his class at HJ. He was definitely a cool teacher.
