Larry Joe Turner

Larry Joe Turner, 83, of Farmersburg passed away on Saturday, April 26, 2025.  He was born July 25, 1941, in Terre Haute to Doylene Turner and June Stewart Turner.  Larry was a proud and dedicated farmer for 63 years.  In his earlier years, he loved taking the family boating on Kentucky Lake.  He was also in a bowling league for many years.  Larry will be remembered for his favorite colors, green (John Deere) and red (his red trucks).  When they were able to get away from working the fields, Larry and Donna were blessed to have visited Europe several times.  They were able to experience Switzerland, Italy, and Paris among other beautiful countries.  Larry was a member of the Farmersburg West Lawn Cemetery Board and a member of the Farmersburg United Methodist Church.  Most of all, Larry was a family man.  He loved spending time with his wife, children, and grandchildren.  He will be missed by so many.
