OWNER/OPERATOR
GENERAL MANAGER
Saying “Local boy” might be an understatement. He grew up in Galena Park and now lives in Cove, Texas. He is a member of Faith Family Church, Crosby Huffman Chamber, Dayton Chamber, North Channel Area Chamber, Baytown Chamber, a North Shore Rotarian and a 24 Year Sponsor of the Crosby Fair and Rodeo. He is a big fan of reality shows and he might have even have sent a video in to Survivor and You should ask him how he feels about the Texans….enough said. David has had two major events happen right here since starting in the car business at John Keating in 1994. First, he met his beautiful wife in 1996 while selling her a car right on this lot. They married in 1998 and have two beautiful children. Second, he was selected by Robert Turner to help turn things around and run Turner Chevrolet on June 2, 2014. He believes it’s all about sincere relationships, treat people the way you want to be treated. The culture here is to make friends in this business take care of them and help make a visit here stress free. “You reap what you sow or you get what you give so give all you can.” “Working for a family owned business is a blessing. We value your business and we try to do our best to earn it.” Every manufacturer makes a great product, but they are built by man so we cannot promise things will never break but we will be here for you if they do. “We can’t promise it will never rain, but we can promise to hold the umbrella.” David and the entire staff care about the community and they give back as often as possible. “Life in the car business has brought me so many blessings. I try and pay it back with a sincere desire to help people not only save time and money, but Make It Fun as well! All of our People Really do make the Difference!”
CUSTOMER SERVICE RELATIONS
To say this resident of Humble has been here from the beginning is a bit of an understatement. He officially started working in the business in 2005, logging in hours of starting as a porter and wash kid and etc. As a result he has experience in several different areas of the store. Where he really started to shine was when he was on the showroom floor selling. He gives his customers black tie – white glove service each and every time. Most of his customers have no idea he is the owner’s son. As he continues to train to one day have a store of his own he has learned that it’s not always about what you know, it’s about “People” and how you treat them. “To be a part of such a great and rapidly growing community is an honor. I like to take the serious buying process and make it simple and easy for everyone. I appreciate the opportunity to help our community turn their transportation dreams into reality.” -Robbie Turner. This Kid does more than he has to. But isn’t that what you’d expect from a store where “Our People Make the Difference”?
PRODUCT SPECIALIST
Paul started in this business before a lot of his co-workers were out of diapers. Since June of 2014 he has driven from Friendswood every day to be a part of the Turner Team. To say he adds a unique element to our family is a mild understatement. Listen to how he describes being in the car business; “Over the years I’ve helped a lot of people make an informed decision about transportation needs, but that isn’t what I enjoy the most. It’s making friends out of customers. It’s having them share the changes in their lives. I have several families that I’ve helped second and third generations purchase vehicles. I’ve been to family parties, celebrated births, graduations, new jobs and weddings all with friends that started as customers. Once, I met a Unicorn. I’ve even run someone to the beauty parlor while her vehicle was in for an oil change, twice! This business has blessed me with more than I could imagine.” As he helps our Team with Training you can always hear him coach co-workers by telling them that "there are about 4200 Chevrolet dealerships in the United States and countless other manufacturers as well. They all sell and service vehicles. But Turner Chevrolet has one thing they don’t. “YOU”. So be different!" We think you’ll find the staff here at Turner Chevrolet will confirm that Paul is different. “People might not remember what you said, they might not remember what you did, but they will always remember how you made them feel.” -Maya Angelou With that as his favorite quote, it’s no wonder he is part of the reason “Our People Make the Difference.”
SALES ASSOCIATE (BILINGUAL)
Mark is a long time Baytown resident that joined us in July of 2017. He brings 12 years of experience to our team, bilingual being a huge impact of that. Mark served 4 years in the Marines before getting into the car business. He has a love of music and he is also a huge fan of all Houston sports Teams. Texans, Astros, Dynamos, Rockets and even U of H. Some days you’ll find him sporting local team colors as he knows his sports almost as much as he knows the product he sells! He is always visiting with customers as they can be here for service or sales and you’ll find him making everyone feel at home, after all he believes in treating people like family. “I like to make sure my customers know they can count on me after the sale. If they come in for service, I will be here for them. Life is what you make it, so why not make it simple?” He also believes Tomorrow is not promised so you need to live life to the fullest. With making things simple for his customers that’s what you would expect from a store where “Our People Make the Difference.”
SALES ASSOCIATE
TJ joined our team in August 0f 2017, right before Harvey hit. He started in the car business in 1980 and even though he has held several different job titles, being a sales professional is what he enjoys the most. He comes in from Baytown every morning with a smile on his face. TJ is also a talented musician and even spent time on the road. He has some great stories. He met the love of his life, Kathy and has a family that includes 4 children and several grandchildren. Being a part of a family that shares more love than one man deserves, brings him his greatest joy. TJ is a seasoned professional that always says: “Be careful of what you say to your customers.

Sales Consultant
I like to think of myself as positive, genuine, and person who manifests good things into the world. I was born and raised in the city of Beaumont, Texas. I love to travel but my roots always call me back home every time. My hobbies have turned into passions over the years, and one of those is singing and making an impact in a positive way. I make it my business that no matter where I go or who I meet I am shining my brightest. Providing a safe space for the community to do business is a continuous goal. I am falling in love with the Crosby culture, the small town with a big heart and all of the surrounding areas. I am a proud and firm believer that Our People Make The Difference.
SERVICE MANAGER
A Service Manager usually wears a lot of hats, and Gary is no exception. Gary, a Crosby resident, has 37 years of service experience. His vast service knowledge was an asset when he joined our team in June of 2014. Even though he knows his way around a vehicle, he can also be found repairing issues with the property as well. You might even find him here on Sundays pressure washing the service drive. It’s even possible that he might be the mechanic that worked on your car. Gary believes in going the extra mile for our customers and the Turner team. His motto is “If it’s not broke, I can’t fix it, but if it is broke it’s a guarantee that I’ll get to the bottom of it.” Gary is dedicated to building the best Service Department in the region. He is willing to do the work to build from virtually nothing into someplace our community can be proud of and come for all their transportation needs. With his drive and determination Turner Chevrolet will get there.

FINANCE MANAGER
Jonathan “Marc” Sorelle, a lifelong Baytonian, came to Turner Chevrolet in September of 2016. He joined us as our Business Manager or the dreaded F&I; guy. Marc knew the average customer’s opinion of people in his position so he decided he needed to be different. He set out to educate himself on everything he needed to know to make himself the best he could be. As a result he has a thorough knowledge of the financial end of the business and that enables him to help his customers make the best choices. You’ll often hear Marc and customers laughing with each other as he is a man with a thousand stories. It’s all a part of his friendly nature and customers appreciate how helpful he is. Customers know they’ve made informed decisions when talking to him as he is a master at taking the stress out of a car deal. With this as his motto, “Yesterday is History, tomorrow is a Mystery, Today is a Gift, that’s why it’s called the Present, So I Will Always Do My Best.” It is no wonder that he’s another reason why “Our People Make the Difference”
