July 23, 1952 - July 23, 2021
Jill Dee Turner, age 69, of Colorado Springs, Colorado, passed away on her birthday, July 23, 2021 at home surrounded by her loved ones.
She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and most importantly, devout Christ-follower. She was born on July 23, 1952 to Al and Jackie Thompson in Kansas City, Missouri.
Jill met her husband, John, on New Year's Eve 1967. She grew up in Burbank, California and graduated Burbank High School in 1970. Jill went on to earn a degree in Interior Design at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Jill worked as a business owner and homemaker for over forty-eight years.
She enjoyed her kids, grandkids, and traveling with her husband, John. Perhaps most importantly, she was one of the privileged few to pass away on her birthday. In the ancient Old Testament tradition, this signifies a person who has fulfilled God's complete and perfect mission, and is considered a special gift and blessing.
Jill is survived by her husband, John E. Turner of Colorado Springs, Colorado; her children, Katie (fiancé, Matthew Akromis) Turner, and Travis (Kelly) Turner; and her grandchildren, Stella, Clara, and Cade.
Private Graveside Service will be held at, 9:00AM, Friday, July 30, 2021.
