PRESTON JAY TURNER, 26 years, of Fremont, Nebraska, passed away, Sunday, May 25, 2014, as a result of injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident near Elkhorn, Nebraska.

Preston was born August 22, 1987, to Douglas J. and Amy J. (Schaferman) Turner in Fremont, Nebraska.

Preston graduated from Elkhorn High School in 2006 and from University of Nebraska-Omaha in 2011 with a degree in Criminal Justice. He was currently employed at McDaniel Walquist and The Bullet Hole, both in Omaha.

Preston loved hunting with his dad and Grandpa Turner, getting a buck on his first season out in 2009. He had several passions including riding his Harley Davidson and was looking forward to his first trip to Sturgis this coming August. He recently became involved in BACA (Bikers Against Child Abuse). His work at The Bullet Hole allowed him to pursue another great hobby he had of gun collecting. He loved just spending time with his friends and family, and was always the first to offer help to anyone of them who needed it. Preston was the negotiator, the storyteller, the one to bring light into the room. Most of all he was a compassionate and loving son, brother, grandson and friend. He will be deeply missed by all of those who had the privilege of knowing him.

He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Robert L. Schafersman of Hooper and aunt, Cynthia L. Lechner of Omaha.
