Jill Turner

I was climbing up the road to the cabin on Wilbraham Mountain on a beautiful Fall afternoon when I encountered Jill on her bicycle. She was wearing a set of radio headphones and offered them to me for a listen. The song that was playing featured Neil Young and Steve Stills doing "Long May You Run". I'd never heard it before but somehow it transcribed that moment in my life forever. To this day, whenever I happen to hear that tune, I go back to the feeling, that day and relive some of...

I remember her as a totally original and unique individual. We hung out some in the late 60's and early 70's from Classical High to Wilbraham and the Woodrose Ballroom. She had a great group of cool friends back then and I'm glad we got to be a part of each other's lives during those years. Never to be forgotten.

I'm so sorry to learn of Jill's passing. So many memories of her all involve her singing & playing her guitar. Thinking of the Turner family, especially Kyle, at this sad time. May Jill find peace in her new life.

I knew Jill from growing up on Ashland. I have nice memories of a whole gang of us being at the Turner's house with Jill making music. My deepest sympathy is with all of her family.

Have wonderful memories of the Turner family.

We first met Jill in 1956. She was a very smart joyous little girl. Happy to read that she became a giving ,loving member of society.

My sincere sympathy to all the family,
