Synopsis

From Boo, With Love is an intimate collection of stories and verse from Richard W. “Boo” Turner, Sr., a World War II pilot, artist, Scout executive, devoted husband, and lifelong storyteller. Gathered here for the first time, these unpublished writings reveal a man whose extraordinary life was defined not by grand events alone, but by humor, service, faith, and unwavering love for his wife, Caroline, and their family.

In these pages, Boo invites readers into moments big and small: boyhood adventures in Depression-era New York, family escapades across decades and states, lessons learned through parenthood, church life, Scouting, storms, friendships, and quiet acts of devotion. His poems, tender, spiritual, and reflective, trace the inner landscape of a man who walked through joy and grief with equal honesty.

Heartfelt and lighthearted, From Boo, With Love preserves the voice of a man who believed deeply in gratitude, storytelling, and the everyday miracles of an ordinary-extraordinary life. This book is both a tribute and a gift: a legacy of memory, humor, faith, and love passed from one generation to the next.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Richard W. Turner, Sr. (1924-2004) was a World War II veteran, decorated pilot, artist, author, and devoted husband and father whose life was marked by service, creativity, humility, and deep faith. Born in Johnson City, New York, Turner answered the call of duty, serving with distinction in the China-Burma-India (CBI) Theater. As a pilot, he flew 72 1/2 missions over the treacherous Himalayan supply route known as "The Hump", an experience that shaped his character and perspective for the rest of his life. After the war, Turner became a leader in the Boy Scouts of America, raised a family, was active in his church, and enjoyed painting, nature, and whittling woodcarvings. He shared 56 years with the love of his life, Caroline, and began writing in his later years to reflect on his life's most defining moments.
