A Go Fund Me named In Support of the Brian Turk Family, was set up in July in support of Turk and his close relatives.
"Just over a year ago our dear friend, Brian Turk, was diagnosed with cancer. Being the selfless and private person that he is, Brian kept this quiet so as not to concern his family and friends. Unfortunately, the cancer has now become terminal. Brian has impacted so many of us in a positive way whether it be on the football field, at Mater Dei or USC, on stage or in our personal lives. He has always been there for us in our times of need and celebration.
"Brian wants to fight this battle as he has a wife & an 8 year old son, who calls him his best friend. His will to live is strong but this is expensive. Brian has been the breadwinner supporting his family as his wife has been physically unable to work full time.
"As a community we need to keep Brian & his family in our prayers during this time. We need to consider him & his family long term. They need our support for his son's future. If you have the ability to donate any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
"At this time the family is requesting privacy while they deal with and process Brian's diagnosis & enjoy these moments together."
