James Michael Turba

James Michael Turba, age 52, passed away on December 4, 2025. He was born on January 27, 1973, in St. Petersburg, Florida.

James was a dedicated Process Engineer for Georgia Pacific and took great pride in his work. He earned a degree in chemistry from the University of Florida, an accomplishment that reflected his strong work ethic and intellectual curiosity.

Above all else, James was a devoted and proud father. He loved talking about his children and their achievements, and he cherished time spent with his family-especially watching football together, playing games together, and enjoying frequent family trips to Disney. He maintained close relationships with his childhood friends throughout his life, valuing loyalty, connection, and shared memories.

A man of faith, James was a member of St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in Henderson, Nevada.

James was preceded in death by his father, Robin William Turba, and his mother-in-law, Sue Ann Miller. He is survived by his loving wife, Megan Miller Turba; his children, Nathan James Turba, Natalie Suzanne Turba, and Bennett Davis Turba; his mother, Elizabeth Ann Turba; his sister, Julie Turba Bobbitt, her husband, Michael Bobbitt, and their children, Peyton Bobbitt and Avery Bobbitt.

James will be remembered for his warmth, his dedication to his family, and the pride he took in those he loved.

He will be deeply missed by all who knew him. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made toward the education of James's children.
