Noah Turner

Noah Turner, of Commerce, passed away at his residence on Monday, November 3, 2025. He was born in Lansing, Michigan on August 12, 2004, and moved to Paris, Texas in 2022 and then to Commerce in 2023. Noah was a junior at East Texas A&M University.

Noah was a gifted artist and could make something beautiful out of anything he touched. His artistic talent was evident through his drawing, painting, sculpture, and photography. Noah loved music (particularly of the emo variety) and played the guitar and ukelele. He also enjoyed writing, cooking, cosplay, and anime. Noah’s love for animals was apparent from a young age, as he loved dogs, cats, and even the occasional opossum.

Noah is survived by his mother, Nicky Turner; siblings, Andrea Simmons, Austin Simmons (wife Amy), and Allyson Turner; and niblings, Reed, Harper, and Rowan.

In lieu of flowers, family and friends request donations be made in Noah’s name to The Trevor Project.
