Mrs. Turner was a neighbor of our family for over 30 years. She was one classy lady. I will remember her for her walk, style, and voice. To the family stick together and love one another. Paul "Ricky" and Pattie were in Anne's wedding so we have history together. I can't forget the father Mr. Charles because my dad's name is Charles and then the brother Charles "Chuckie". I have a brother named Charles also. My so many memories.And Michelle"Mickey" our beautician and makeup artist. Nothing but memories
