Bradley Turner

Bradley was born Tuesday, February 11, 1964 to Arthur and Rosalie Turner in The Pas, Manitoba. Brad grew up in Cormorant, Manitoba. Later he moved to Winnipeg and then Thompson, Manitoba. At the time of his passing he resided at St. Paul’s Personal Care Home in The Pas. Brad was employed as an Emergency Fire Fighter, and he also worked at CN Rail, Home Hardware and babysat. He attended Cormorant Lake School, Teulon Collegiate and KCC in Thompson, where he took a small motors repair course. A few of Brad’s nicknames were “Bracho” and to his nieces and nephews “Uncle Taz”. Brad enjoyed fishing, hunting, trapping, playing cards, playing baseball, watching hockey and spending time with his nieces and nephews. Bradley had a heart of gold and kindness for everyone. This was evident by when the neighborhood children would knock on his door and ask if Brad could come out to play. Brad had a great sense of humour and enjoyed playing jokes on family members. His favorite quote was “I didn’t mean to do it!” Bradley will be missed by all, but we know he is safe where he is, with those who have gone before him. Bradley passed away, Thursday, March 22, 2012 at St. Anthony’s Hospital, The Pas, Manitoba, at the age of 48 years.
