TURNER, Diane…

Peacefully surrounded by family, at her home Diane (McMillan) Turner went to be with Jesus, on Monday, October 12, 2026, in her 84th year. Beloved wife and best friend of Willy Turner Sr. for 62 years. Loving mother of Willy Turner Jr. (Sharon), Randy Turner (Sharon) and Justine Turner. Cherished Grandma of Rhyce, Marshall (Jovana), Trae, and Great GG Mama of Roman. Dear sister of Calvin (Mary), Danny (Judy), and sister-in-law of Marion (the late Jim), Henry (the late Marsha) and Katherine (the late Dennis). Missed by her many nieces and nephews. Predeceased by her brother David and her sister-in-law Patricia.

Family and faith were at the heart of her life. She was deeply devoted to her children and grandchildren and treasured the time she spent with those she loved most. She especially enjoyed cooking for her family and creating special memories with her grandchildren. In her spare time, she could often be found knitting, a pastime she greatly enjoyed. Her faith was an important part of her life, and she was a dedicated member of the Beth Emanuel Home and Foreign Missionary Society and Past President. She was also a devoted member and Past President of the East London Lioness Club, where her commitment to helping others and serving her community was recognized with the prestigious Helen Keller Award, honouring her dedication and support. Her kindness, faith, and devotion to her family and community will be fondly remembered by all who knew her.
