Biography
John attended school in Scotch Plains, NJ at Shackamaxon Grade School. He moved to the Charleston, WV area where he continued in Junior High and High School at George Washington HS. He moved again to Media, PA where he graduated High School from Nether Providence HS, now called Strath Haven HS.
He went on to attend college at Rochester Institute of Technology taking a Professional Photography science degree program. That knowledge served him well at his employment for Micor The Micrographics Corporation where he was elevated to the processing lab/QA manager position then to Technical Director for the corporation.
John Married Linda Kolb which provided a child, Gary Edward Turner born in 1988. He adopted Linda's daughter Jennifer which allowed for the name change for her to Turner. The marriage lasted 10 years before ending in divorce.
John then joined National Micrographics Systems where he specialized in digital imaging. He moved to Maryland where NMS had the largest customer base. His background in document conversion services allowed for him to spin off into a conversion company owned by the NMS owners also called NMS which was located in Charles Town, WV. He aided in the growth of that company through a move to Kearneysville, WV and a sale of the company and move to Martinsburg, WV. The company changed the name to Docutex. His position there was Operations Manager, then CEO.
John later joined National Industries for the Blind where he worked on programs using digital imaging which employed people who were blind or disabled.
When John's father died in 2011 he resigned the position at NIB after three years and rejoined the Maryland based NMS again where he was allowed to work from Pennsylvania while assisting his elderly mother Marie.
John's CompTIA certification was achieved as a Certified Document Imaging Architect (CDIA).
He has assisted the SAR by providing data entry for for their PRS system updating patriot and member information.

I was wondering if perhaps you would be interested to work on the Portal World-The Netherlands with Melissa and Bill and hopefully more members ? I was thinking maybe we can make it a sub Project of the Dutch Roots Project, where you all can add or work on more specific things related to the Netherlands you would like to see added there or work on.
If you are interested just add your name to the list and let me know, or you can of course contact Melissa or Bill directly.
Greets from the Netherlands,
Bea :)
