A native of Rock Hill, David is the son of the late Truman Brice Turney and Robbie Wyatt Turney. He retired after many years of employment from the Rock Hill Printing and Finishing Co. and was an Army Veteran having also served in the Army Reserve.
He was the son of a farmer and learned to work hard all his life. He was a strong man but was soft spoken. He loved to have fun, especially with picking at his family. He told everybody he met that he was a blue baby and that he was the Lord's man. He was kind hearted and always helped others asking nothing in return. He taught his family the best he knew and made them what they are today. He was a lover, father, grandfather and friend, who will be missed.

He is survived by his wife, Blonnie Brock Turney; four sons, Gary Turney (Linda), Ronnie Turney, Randy Turney (Sharon), and Donald Turney (Mari); one daughter, Lori Turney; three bothers, Richard Turney, Cecil Turney, and Dallas Turney; one sister, Fannie Walker; 10 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
