Lisa Turner Obituary

We are sad to announce that on November 22, 2020 we had to say goodbye to Lisa Turner of Sturgeon, Missouri. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

She was predeceased by: her parents, Clarence Sprick and Selma Sprick of Franklin, Missouri.. She is survived by: her husband Marvin I. Turner; her siblings, Gary Sprick (Karla) of New Franklin, Missouri, Eileen Ernst (Hank) of Topeka, Kansas and Howard Sprick of Franklin, Missouri; her nieces, Cami Savage, Tawnya Ernst, Kacey Ernst and Britta Ernst; and her great-nieces and great-nephews, Annie Savage of Kansas City, Missouri, Savanna, Maiya, Athena Ernst-Virani of Tucson, Arizona, Christopher Savage of Prairie Village, Kansas, Joren and Ian Miller of Lawrence, Kansas..

Prior to the pandemic, she enjoyed traveling (especially hitting the beach with a good book). She took the isolation of the pandemic in stride enjoying a walk in the woods, watching movies with Marvin and, most recently, teaching him to play Scrabble.

“Lisa was my Boss and as time went by, my friend. She was the best Supervisor I ever had. She built one of the highest functioning teams in the history of DMH/DD.
