    I’ll never forget the day I dissected my frog! He laughed so hard at me that day! Great man! may your family be wrapped in the loving arms of JESUS during this time and know that no matter how far we are from Meeker it is always home and losing someone there affects so many people near and far. My love and prayers are with you all!

    I was sadden to see Coach Tuner had passed away. I grew up in Steamboat Springs and wrestled under another great coach Carl Ramunno. Coach Turner just like Coach Ramunno loved the Kids and served them Honorably. He will not be forgotten by myself for who was lucky enough to get to Wrestle against his teams. I wish the whole family the best.

    I am broken hearted to hear of the death of my friend and mentor. I wrestled in the mid seventies for Coach Turner, He fed pancakes to our soul. 🙂 Coach was the world to me. I grieve for the sons and
    daughters left behind. Kai, keep the faith, I love you and God Loves you, keep your family strong.
