David Turner
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of David Turner on Monday 23rd September.
David joined Dumfries and County in 1944 at the age of 11 years. A very active member David went on to serve on committee before becoming Captain in 1983 and then became Match Secretary, a position he held for 18 years. In 2010 he was elected an Honorary member of Dumfries and County Golf Club for his outstanding service and dedication to the club. After a member proposal in 2013 the 14th hole was renamed Turners Way in his honour given that he had an incredible 16 holes in one at that hole during his playing days.
David was a true gentleman and his many friends and acquaintances from the game of golf will be saddened by the news of his passing.
On behalf of all the members of we extend our sincere condolences to David’s family at this sad time.
The funeral will take place at Roucan Loch on Wednesday 9th October at 12 noon.
