Reflections for Officer George Turner

I was interested in your death after finding an old Star telegram newspaper article from 1929. It talked about officers taking the train to Chicago and Springfield to being back the suspect. I pray for your descendants and pray you are dancing among the stars.

Rest in Peace Officer George Turner. Thank You for your Service and Sacrifice protecting the citizens of Fort Worth, Texas.

I Pray for Peace for your Loved ones and the men and women that now serve the Fort Worth Police Department. I also Pray that the hounds of hell are now gnawing on the bones of the scum that took you away from your loved ones. May his soul rot in hell.

Amen.

Grandfather, your daughter Mary Louise just passed away this week, May 8, 2016. She was 93, and was able to live in her own home after her husband of 69 years died in 2009. She was delicate, small and very strong. In addition to 3 children, and 6 grandsons, she also was able to see her two great-grandchildren - 2 year-old Theo and few months old Saffron, before she died. We will miss her terribly, but when remembering her will also not forget you, her father, and your sacrifice.

Your granddaughter Yvonne

Time may have passed but you are not forgotten. I believe as long as someone remembers you or speaks your name, you are still with us.
Thank you for your heroism.
God Bless

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 83rd anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered.

Rest In Peace.

Grandfather - Although your 3 grandchildren never met you, we are proud of you and saddened by the tragedy of your loss at such a young age, knowing how difficult it must have been for your wife (Grandma Goldie) and sweet daughter Mary (our mother) who still remembers you, although she was only 5 at the time. You would be happy to know what a good person she is (very much like you I am told), patient, good-natured, energetic, hardworking, steadfast, sweet and practical, honest, quiet and modest. She is still living at age 88. You have a granddaughter and 2 grandsons, and 6 great-grandsons, all of whom are handsome, intelligent, and upstanding people, living in California, Hawaii, and Idaho. I never understood what this must have meant to my grandmother until a few years ago when researching your death. We would love to know your other Turner relatives, but mother lost touch with them many years ago. Thank you for your service, and for your exemplary character.
