Roscoe Daniel Turner, 83, Marion, passed away at 9:52 am on Monday, April 27, 2026, at Miller’s Merry Manor. He was born in Rockford, Indiana, on Saturday, April 10, 1943, to William and Monna Belle (Miller) Turner.
He loved hunting and fishing, especially taking his sons along and teaching them the ways he knew so well. He believed that “home is where the heart is,” and no matter where life took him, family was always at the center. With loved ones from Florida to Indiana, he made it a point to visit often and stay close to those he cared about. He had a passion for music, playing guitar and singing whenever he could, even spending time as a member of a band. He loved the Lord and carried his faith with him throughout his life. Known as the best and most creative storyteller, he could captivate anyone with his words and sense of humor. He also shared a very special bond with his siblings, holding those relationships close to his heart.
