Walker Turner Obituary

Lifelong Siskiyou County outdoorsman, Walker William Turner met his last sunset on December 27, 2024 at the young age of 24.
Walker was born in Mount Shasta to Kevin and Teresa (Hansen) Turner on March 6, 2000, and grew up in Grenada. Walker was a typical Siskiyou County country boy: he grew up playing sports, hunting, fishing, and putting lots of effort and money into his truck! The indoors never once suited Walker, as he could almost always be found outside. His favorite past-time was hunting – whether big game or upland bird, varmints or turkey – and he enjoyed making his own arrows for use during archery season. Additionally, there wasn't a bass pond in the county that Walker wasn't familiar with.
Walker was a very open and honest person. He told it like it was, never in mean or condescending way; rather, from a place of care and concern. He was the type of person that could be approached by anyone for a problem or issue, and he would offer his no-nonsense, practical, and blunt assessment.
Walker was always up for an adventure, and he shared in many with his close friends. He was always on the go, well aware of the fact that memories aren't made by sitting idle. While his memory will live on, his friends will have to endure future endeavors with an emptiness in their group.
Walker is survived by his parents, Kevin and Teresa; a brother, Colton; a nephew, Alden – whom Walker adored; by several aunts and uncles, and by many friends.
He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
At this time, no services are scheduled.
