I sure did love Ms. Turner. So many of our wonderful teachers have left us and it’s just incredibly sad. We had the best at Mantachie. Ms. Turner didn’t care if she taught you or not she loved you anyway. I would do anything to go back to the 80s and do it all over again. Rest in peace Ms. Turner. You were loved by so many and much more than you could ever imagine.
