Terrence Tomez Turner

Terrence Tomez Turner was a 22-year-old from Fairfield, Alabama. Public records and memorial listings show he died on February 6, 2018. Although a formal, family-published obituary matching his name and exact date of death was not located in the public funeral-home archives we searched, the available records indicate he was a young adult known to his community.

What is publicly known about Terrence is limited in scope, but that limitation does not lessen the human reality of his life. At 22 he stood at a stage of life when people are making plans, building relationships, and exploring work and study. Those around him—family, friends, neighbors—were the people who carried his everyday stories: the small routines, the laughter shared, and the ties that anchored him to Fairfield.

Families and communities often remember loved ones in details that never make it into news reports or data tables: a favorite meal, a steady presence at family gatherings, the way someone helped a neighbor, or simple, everyday kindnesses. Those are the kinds of memories Terrence’s circle likely holds. Public memorial pages that list his name and the date of his death reflect that people continue to light candles and leave remembrances, a sign that his life mattered to others.

Because authoritative personal details (such as a published funeral notice, complete birth date, or a family-approved obituary) were not found in accessible funeral-home or newspaper obituary indexes that match the supplied death date exactly, this life story honors what can be respectfully verified: Terrence was a young man from Fairfield whose life ended on February 6, 2018. His name appears in public memorial records for victims of gun violence, and those records are a reminder that a person with a family, relationships, and a future was lost.

If the family or friends would like a fuller, family-approved remembrance to appear on a memorial page, adding details such as childhood memories, schooling, work or vocational interests, names of relatives, and photographs would help paint a fuller picture of Terrence’s life beyond the brief public record. For now, this page remembers him as a young person whose life had meaning to people who knew him and who continue to honor his memory.
