ike turner - Online Memorial Website

My 11 year old son went to school on Wednesday, after having the two previous days off due to snow. The first thing he wanted to talk about with his classmates and teachers, was the sad passing of Ike Turner. Live on Mr. Turner....LIVE ON!!

 

My Mother finally died 2 years ago.  But Ike would make it a point to stop off and visit every so often.  This allowed me to know the real Ike Turner and for that I am thankful and for the joy he brought to my Mother on those visits.  Rest in peace Ike. 

After all those years I find it hard to believe Tina can only say "..no further comment..."  Shame on her... wasn't the movie enough payback?

 

May the man, I never knew, rest in peace and his family and friends find closure and always remember the good times!

I was very sad to hear that Mr. Turner passed on to a better place, even through I wasn't even born when he came on to the music sence I heard his music played in my house as a young gril.  He was a very good musician and I enjoyed his music.  To the Turner family may god with you in this time of sadness, he will live on in each one of his family members.

 

God Bless!

Mr. Turner touched the lives of many and will be deeply missed by those who knew him. My deepest heartfelt sympathy to the Ike Turner family. My prayers and thoughts are with you during your hours of sorrow.

In the subculture of real fans and students of rock history there is no one who can hold a candle to Ike Turner. 

From Rocket 88 to the early influence on Elvis in the juke joints of West Memphis Arkansas juke, to the years as the boss of East St. Louis, to the Ike and Tina years, to the bottom of the barrel, back to a hand in early rap with Salt n Peppa's Shoop (based on Ike's "I'm Blue), to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, to a 2007 Grammy - show me another musician who began as early in life, influenced so many, and got up off the mat to still be creating great music in his last days.  There is not another.  There is only one, Ike.

Rest in peace.  We will miss you.

Ike's music will live on...........and on as long as there are musicians-thanks for the music Ike; and we can't help where we're born-Clarksdale, MS!  Now, may he rest in peace and God be with-Ike Turner! My deepest sympathy to the Ike Turner family, friends for the loss of a 'icon', we've lost another 'soulful' one. Gone but not forgotten-too bad a person has to die before something good is said about you.

Ike mein Lieber, mach's gut!

I was sadden to hear about the death of Mr. Ike Turner. The bible teaches us to never judge a book by its cover. It also states that we as fleshly humans are not God therefore we should not judge the man. He had some problems and the only thing that I would wish for is that he made it right with the good Lord before he was called into judgement. It is not our job to judge what a person might have have been or might become because we all have stones hidden in our closets. Praise God for the talent that he gave to Ike because without Ike there would be no Tina Turner. God bless you family.

I also live in San Marcos, California, except on the other side of town near the Palomar College (Letter "P") on the mountain area.  Does Ike's little house in San Marcos plan to be put on the real estate market in the future?  I like his little house.

Is there going to be a garage sale or yard sale or estate sale anytime soon at the house? What are they going to do with the house and his belongings?
