Posted byIdaho Traditional BowhuntersPosted inNews

This message brings the sad news of the passing of John Turner of American Leathers, and one of the founding members of our Idaho Traditional Bowhunters Club. He suffered from a neurodegenerative disease called progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and passed quietly in his sleep. Supported by his loving wife, Lori, he “kept his good attitude until the end’ quoting from a post by Nate Steen on the Leather Wall Bowsite. See the full tribute by Nate on the LeatherWall Traditional Archery Discussion Forum here.

He was a special human being and will be missed by many. Prayers for the Turner family.
