My deepest sympathy goes out to the Turner family. Lois was a wonderful person and a great Mother. I knew Lois when our girls were in school and Brownies and Girl Scouts. We worked in PTA together. Pamela and Patrica, Diane sends her love and sympathy. God Bless. Life is Good

I extend my sincere condolences to the family of Lois Turner. I first met Lois when her daughter Pam played on the girls softball team I coached in Schertz. I also knew her from the American Legion where she served on the ladies auxiliary. Lois is one of the finest people I have ever known. She will be missed by all who knew her.

Lois was one of our biggest supporters. She loved coming and watching Phillip and all of the other athletes play soccer. She always had a smile on her face that made everyone else smile. From everyone involved with "Special Teams" you will always be in our thougts and forever in our hearts.

Lois Turner has a special way of making people who meet her feel happy. She was truly one of God's angel walking this earth. She had a way of touching everyone she came in contact with and that little touch will last forever. We are so blessed to have Lois in our lives. We will miss her so much.

Say not in grief that she was no more,
But say in thankfulness that she was.
A death is not the extinguishing of a light,
But the putting out of the lamp because the dawn has come.

I can't begin to express what Lois (Miss Turner) has meant to me. I can honestly say that my life was brighter because I had the privilege of knowing her.

I am holding all of you close to my heart in your time of sorrow.

All my love,

Sandra Piech (Sanford)
