It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Jeffrey M. Turley, who passed away at his home in Whitewater, Wisconsin, on March 3, 2025. Born on May 14, 1953, in Sheridan, Wyoming and was the cherished son of Melvin and Janice Turley.
Jeff’s journey through life was one marked by his unwavering passion for the outdoors. He found joy in the simple pleasures of hunting and camping, fishing and crossword puzzles. His love for nature was only rivaled by his affection for animals, particularly horses, which he embraced as a true cowboy at heart.
On November 27, 1999, Jeff married Linda Turley. Together, they created a beautiful blended family, with five wonderful children: Jeffie, Tamela, Shane, Shane, and Shawn.
In addition to his immediate family, Jeff is survived by his loving siblings: Steve, Danny, Donna, Karen, Jim, Sandy, Kev, and Mitsy.
Jeff is preceded in death by his first wife, Kathy.
As we say goodbye to our cowboy, we celebrate the life he lived—a visitation will take place on Thursday, March 13, 2025 at Pagenkopf Funeral Home (NEW LOCATION: 2228 N. Silver Maple Lane, Oconomowoc, WI 53066) from 11:00am-12:00pm with a service to follow.
Rest in peace, dear cowboy.
