Malaki Ray Turner

A proud graduate of Destinations Career Academy, Class of 2025, Malaki was known for his strong work ethic and dedicated spirit. He was employed at McLane Western, where he worked as a selector.

Outside of work, Malaki lived life with energy and curiosity. He had a deep passion for working on cars and could often be found under the hood, figuring out how things worked. He loved spending time outdoors fishing, and enjoyed the digital world through streaming, video games, and watching YouTube. Above all, Malaki cherished time spent with his family and loved ones.

He is survived by his mother, Tabitha Gale, and stepfather, Jesse Gale, of Johnstown, CO; his father, David Turner, of Firestone, CO; his brother, Drew Turner, of Longmont, CO; and his sister, Leyla Gale, of Johnstown, CO. He also leaves behind his cherished grandparents: maternal grandmother Darla Bauer, and paternal grandparents Terri and Mike Turner.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in Malaki's honor may be made to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
