It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved sister, Angela Dawn Turner, who departed this life on Thursday, December 11th, 2025, after a courageous battle with cancer at the age of fifty-eight. Her warmth, kindness, and generosity touched the lives of all who knew her.
Angela was born on January 26th, 1967, in Scottsboro, Alabama to the late Gary Lee Turner and late Barbara Watson Turner.
Angela lived a life filled with love, laughter, and dedication. She graduated from
Scottsboro High School and attended Maryville College in Tennessee where she
studied chemistry. Later in life she discovered a passion for healing and continued her education at the University of Alabama in Huntsville receiving a BSN and MSN in Nursing. She pursued a career in nursing, where she was respected for her hard work and commitment.
Throughout her life, Angela found joy in reading, cooking, quilting, music, and football. Whether it was spending time with family, traveling, or volunteering, she brought light and positivity wherever she went.
