To know Porter Turner was to like him. His name might be called synonym for honesty, integrity, truth, uprightness in life. He was a man of wide acquaintance; and that the people like him is shown by the hundreds of callers who in respect to him and his family, went to his home after his death, and also by the many beautiful flowers that were sent to his home to surround the casket in which he lay. His family will always appreciate the many kindnesses shown to them by his numerous friends.
