Mr. Ketrick Kluvanne Turner was born February 17, 1975 in Bolivar County, Shaw, Mississippi to Curtis Richard and Dorothy Jean Johnson Turner. He departed this life on Thursday, February 6, 2020 at age 44 years.
Ketrick’s family relocated to Saginaw, Michigan while he was young, making Saginaw his home of remembrance and where he resided until his untimely passing. He united with Christ Community Church as a child, under the leadership of the late Pastor William D. Aldridge, Sr. Ketrick was a graduate of Saginaw High School, “Class of 1993.” He went on to work at Admiral Gas Station on Dixie Highway for many years until his health declined.
Ketrick was a strong and courageous man who was able to find enjoyment in life despite his many health challenges.
