The joy of her life expanded with the addition of her great-grandchildren: Alyssa, Cameron, Vasco, Nevaeh, and Kiley.

She held a special place in her heart for her siblings, Stephen J. Turner, John C. Turner, Jr., Patricia Anne Turner, and Michael W. Turner, along with her sisters-in-law, Laurie, Denise, and Diane, who were all a source of support and love throughout her years.
