It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Philip S. Turner Jr., known to so many as "Digger", who passed away peacefully on February 2, 2026.
Digger was a lifelong Ridley resident whose dedication to our community spanned decades. A proud Ridley High School graduate, he served 25 years with the Ridley Township Police Department, retiring as a detective. His commitment to public service continued as he served 16 years as a District Justice in Ridley Township.
Beyond his professional service, Digger was a volunteer fireman with the Ridley Park Fire Company, a devoted Phillies and Eagles fan, and a beloved family man who cherished summers at the Jersey Shore.
His fairness, integrity, and love for this community left a lasting mark on all who knew him.
Our thoughts are with his family, including his wife Lisa, son Philip, mother Helen, and his six siblings. Rest in peace, Digger. Thank you for your service to Ridley Township.๐
