Carl N. Turner, 74, of Raymond, NH, passed away on Wednesday, April 1st, 2026, at the Mease Countryside Hospital in Safety Harbor, Florida.

He was born and raised in Medford, Massachusetts, and went on to attend the local vocational high school to pursue a career as a CNC Machinist. Carl began his career at BLH, and spent many years at MKS Instruments in Lawrence, MA. In total, he was a machinist for over 40 years. He was devoted to his work and worked hard to provide for his family.

Carl married Margaret "Peg" Donahue on November 20, 1987 and the couple made their home in Salem, NH. He was a family man, loving time spent with his wife and daughter, Meredith. He especially loved going on ski trips with Meredith. Carl also enjoyed being a part of a Thursday night bowling league at Park Place Lanes for many years. Carl also served as the Girl's Softball Coach in Salem for a few years, while his daughter Meredith played. Carl was a parishioner,  served as a Eucharistic Minister, and supported his wife's ministry at St. Matthew's Parish in Windham.

Following his retirement, Carl and Peg moved to Clearwater, FL and enjoyed the west Florida coast.
