Dorothy May Turner

Dorothy May Turner, 81, of Rosiclare, IL passed away on November 20, 2022 at 10:13 PM at the Rosiclare Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center.
Dorothy was born in Cave-In-Rock, IL on September 17, 1941 to Houston and Gladys Jackson. After graduating from Cave-In-Rock in 1959, Dorothy married James Turner on May 6, 1960 and in that union they were blessed with two children, Paul Wayne and Ruth Ann.
After being a stay at home mom for many years, Dorothy started a job at Bob's Food Mart in Rosiclare. She worked for several years there until being diagnosed with cancer. (She was a survivor!). She worked a short time for a chiropractor's office as a receptionist as well as sitting with the elderly if needed. Dorothy was also a loved member of the First Apostolic Church in Rosiclare. Her faith was very important to her.
Grandkids and great grandkids were Dorothy's heart. There was nothing she wouldn't do for them. (That's what Granny's do!)
She is survived by one son, Paul (Debra) Turner and one daughter, Ruth Boyd; 4 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren. Dorothy did leave behind a special aunt, (more like a cousin) Freda Hodge and an uncle, Herbert Belt.
Dorothy was preceded in death by her parents, a step father, and husband, Jimmy.
Funeral services will be held 1 PM Saturday November 26, 2022 at Hardin County Funeral Services in Rosiclare, IL with interment in Empire Cemetery in Elizabethtown, IL. Visitation is scheduled for 11 AM until service time Saturday at the funeral home.
