About the Editor
Sharyn was the driving force behind preserving her father, Richard W. Turner, Sr.'s wartime and spiritual writings.
As editor of Third Chance, Revelation —at Last, and Stories from The Hump, she transcribed handwritten drafts, pored over punctuation and phrasing, and faithfully shepherded his voice to the printed page.
Their collaboration, marked by deep love and the occasional (ok, frequent) editorial debate, became a shared legacy, honoring his military service and the strength of their father-daughter bond.
