Jilayne Turner Obituary
Jilayne Mari Turner, our blessed angel from God, passed away on November 20, 2004. She was a beloved daughter, sister, granddaughter, niece, cousin and friend. Jilayne was our inspiration in life. She was our guiding light. Her smile lit up our lives every second of every day. You could see her soul when you looked into her eyes. Her eyes were the color of the sky and twinkled like stars. She was the most compassionate young lady God ever created. She had the greatest sense of humor. She loved to laugh and she loved to make others laugh. She was always happy and did her best to make others happy. Jilayne was one of a kind. She touched every heart of every person she ever met. She touched the lives of the children she babysat for over the years. They will always remember the loving, fun times they shared with her. She was our joy in life and will continue to be our everlasting joy in death. Jilayn was born October 24, 1987 in Corpus Christi, TX. She was a junior at Mary Carroll High School.
