Bangor - Daniel Thomas Turner, 59, died peacefully at his residence November 29, 2022. He was born July 25, 1963, the youngest child of Leroy G. and Patricia A. (McCluskey) Turner.
He started school at the Children’s Opportunity Center in Brewer and graduated from the Brewer

He attended a day program at Penobscot Valley Industries where he developed many hobbies including NASCAR, painting, sewing and music. He performed, with his mother, in many shows with the Players.
Danny loved performing. (You might say he was a ham!) He had an amazing sense of humor. He loved playing practical jokes but often gave himself away with his
"Scooby Doo" snicker! He just couldn't contain that snicker! He was always the 1st one on a dance floor! Whether it be the dance floor at a wedding reception, an isle in a grocery store or at home..
Dan loved to dance! He was gifted with a huge heart for others and Dan loved to dance! He was gifted with a huge heart for others and often volunteered for various charities. He received a plaque for «Volunteer of the Year" by Gov. Joe Brennen. He was very patriotic and was a troop greeter welcoming troops home from the Desert Storm war.
He is survived by brothers, Michael (Deborah) of Brewer, Patrick (Yvette) of Gorham and "favorite sister in the whole wide world" Jeannette (Tim Bowmaster) of Bangor. He was a proud uncle to Luke, Melissa, Kate and Delaney.
He had a special bond with Tim's daughter, Tara, as well. He was predeceased by his parents.
He will also be greatly missed by his friends.
..especially Sandra
"Miss America" Brown, Anthony Nadeau, Kathy Hopkins, Sara Pomeroy and Alan Rawley and all his friends at Amicus and MERT
