Howard, was my grandmother Odessa youngest nephew. He would visit on Saturday mornings to cut my PaPa Millicent’s hair in the living room. Greeting grandma as Aunt Dessie & PaPa Millicent as Unc. It was like watching an artist at work. 🕊️💔

Mr. Howard Turner was very important to the African American community throughout his life, in fact to me he was a "cultural icon". In the early 1970's I was honored to be selected by Mr.Turner to be in a photo of him styling the Afro hairstyle, our photo was featured in the Fulton Sun Gazette. Thank you Mr. Turner for understanding that the natural Afro was more than a hairstyle; he knew it was a symbol of African American power and elegance. Blessing of strength and love to Mr. Howard Turner's family & love ones.
