At an early age Robert moved to Flint, Michigan where he was raised by his wonderful grandparents, Ted and Viola Turner along with his brother, berlin and Kay, whom he called sister. He was the 2nd oldest with 2 sisters, Sherrie and Shawnie. Robert’s grandparents nurtured him to be the man he is today. He received his primary and secondary education in the Flint Public Schools. With time and a little change, Mr. Robert found favor with the Lord and has made Joy Tabernacle his church home, where he faithfully served until God called him home. But not until he let him have his 1st sermon day in August of 2023. Robert loved cooking, going fishing, listening to his old music at times, shooting a little pool and barbecuing was his specialty. He also loved making sure that the elderly neighbors grass got cut, their snow was shoveled and their numbers got played. Robert could put on a suit and some waves in his head. Now he’s an angel who has received his wings and is going to be so happy when he get’s home, because a lot of important people upstairs just can’t wait to see him and him them. Mr. Robert Lee Turner leaves to cherish his memory: son, Deaundre Jones; daughters, LaKasha (Louis) Hodge and Amber Patterson and family; 4 grandsons, Deairious, D’ande, Jaylin and Brandon; 4 granddaughters, Alesha, Laneshia, Sequoia and A’nya; brother, Berlin Turner; sister, Sherrie Foster; 7 nieces, Chandra, Meme, Shaye, Ericka, Audrey, Corrianna and Kadesha; 4 nephews, Courtney, Eric, Berlin Jr. and Christopher; play sister, Jennifer Heller; very good friend, Moma Joyce Jones; a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, other relatives and friends.
