Lana was one of the sweetest people. I ran into her a few months ago and we laughed and talk for an hour in the parking lot at Dr. Cooks office. She was one of my favs and she always reminded me of my beloved grandmother, Mary Jane Turner Bridges. She and I also shared the love of Nursing, attending the same Nursing School under the same Instructor. It takes a special person to be a nurse and she was that. Family you have my Deepest Sympathy on loss of your Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Sister, Aunt. To me she was Cousin Lana.
Rest In Your Heavenly Father’s Arms. You are home now.

Lana Turner, as I always referred to her because of the movie star , was a beautiful lady, who was a STAR in her own right! We would fall out in laughter, as young, exhuberant, young women often do at everything and at nothing. And then we would stand there hugging and laughing insanely, until the next time, and we'd do it all over again. Of course we'd talk about everything. She was so sweet, and interesting, and goal oriented, and sooo in love. Lana Turner was a beautiful, kind, sweet, and exrtodinary lady that this community and the world has lost. Rest In Peace Lana Turner Rest In Peace
