Brian Timothy Turk

Beloved husband, friend, lover of animals – particularly dogs, son, brother, uncle , step father and mentor.  Brian Timothy Turk passed away after a courageous nine month battle to achieve some quality of life following a series of catastrophic strokes.  He had many other illnesses for many years prior……..cancer, diabetes, lupus, and most recently heart disease. Brian faced each of these medical conditions with an extraordinarily positive attitude, even a sense of humor at times.  He was truly an inspiration to others.  There is much more to say………..this is just a beginning.

Nearly two years since you are gone and still feels like yesterday. Brian made a huge mark in the lives of many people. His eagerness to support others had no bounds, even at the expense of himself at times. Generosity was his hallmark and a tremendous appreciation for life. A student of awareness, all about seeking out where one may be asleep, meditation was a constant for him every day for over 30 years until he had his first stroke.

His ashes were scattered at Inspiration Point, Idyllwild, CA during a gorgeous sundown overlooking the mountains and valleys below. Know he would appreciate the view!

Rest in Peace, Brian Timothy Turk. You are greatly missed……….
