Kooper A. Turner

 It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Kooper Alan Turner, age 4 of Petersburg, WV on Wednesday, March 12, 2025 following a tragic accident.

 From the moment Kooper entered this world on January 8, 2021, he was the embodiment of joy. His parents, Ethan and Kelly Turner cherished every moment with their son, watching him grow and explore the world around him with wonder.  He was a beloved son, a doting younger brother to Kohen Alexander Turner, a cherished grandson to Kelly and Debbie Turner and Eric and Cindy Phares and great grandson to Dorothy L. Weese; and nephew to Eric and Brittany Phares, Courtney and Steven Funk and several great aunts and uncles and several cousins.

 Kooper was everyone’s boy. His smile would light up any darkness. His presence brought an irreplaceable warmth to family gatherings, and his memory will continue to unite his family in love and remembrance. Kooper’s love for the outdoors was matched only by the love he shared with his adoring family. Kooper was his brother’s shadow, he loved him so much and was always by his side whether they were on the farm, playing, sleeping or exploring outdoors. 

  Kooper’s untimely departure leaves a void that can never be filled.  However, his spirit will forever remain a guiding light in the hearts of those who loved him. He was always full of energy. He loved and was so loved.

  Family will receive friends on Saturday, March 15, 2025 from 6 – 8 PM at the Schaeffer Funeral Home in Petersburg. 

A funeral service will be on Sunday, March 16, 2025 at  2 PM in the chapel of Schaeffer Funeral Home with Pastor Steve Snyder officiating.  Burial will follow in the Turner Farm Cemetery on the homeplace.
