Father Turney is a Roman Catholic priest who operated a small church on the outskirts of Los Angeles. During the Second Invasion one year after Liberation Day, Turney decided to join the Resistance and operated an underground railway through his church for children orphaned by the Visitors with the help of Chris Farber. When the Visitors, in violation of the Open City Agreement, raided the church in search of the refugees, Farber and fellow Resistance members Mike Donovan and Ham Tyler saved them from the Visitor soldiers and helped get the children to foster homes inside of the city. Despite Mike's warning about the Visitors most likely returning, Turney decided to stay at the church and continue his efforts, as he felt he needed to be there to help other children escape the invading Visitor armies.

Famous quotes containing the word father:
“I believe that I am letting my kids see that a man can be tender, sensitive, warm, attentive to feelings, and present, just plain there. That’s important to me, because I didn’t get any of that from my own father, and I am realizing now how much I missed it.”
—Anonymous Father (20th century)
