Saltillo- Teresa Gail Turner, 64, died peacefully surround by her family Friday evening, February 24, 2023 at her home in Saltillo. She was born on January 10, 1959 in Tupelo, MS to the late Bennie and Inez Gann Turner. Teresa lived a very difficult life with many major health concerns from a very young age; however she never let her health stop her from enjoying life. She was a strong woman and a hard worker. She loved the Republican Party, Rod Stewart, and Mississippi State Bulldog football. She worked a factory job for LC Industries for many years despite the fact that she was blind from the age of 13. She is best described as a survivor. Her greatest love of all was spending time with her friends and family.
