Leanne Kay Turner, born November 7, 1947, in Harmony, Minn., passed away on July 8, 2017 at Banner Casa Grande Medical Center, surrounded by family and friends.
Leanne is survived by her daughter, Darcy Quinata; siblings Larry (Pat) Turner, Cindy (Jerry) Rieser, and Loren (Donna) Turner. She was preceded in death by parents Dale and Mildred Turner, siblings Lynn Dale Turner, Linda Gutzke, Leslie Turner, nephews Chad Turner and Scott Gutzke, niece Lori More, as well as numerous uncles, aunts and cousins.
In 2012, Leanne retired from a career in computer prograamming and moved to Arizona, where she spent time quilting amongst friends (Quirky Quilters, Cotton Patchers, and Friendship Quilters). Leanne loved to travel so much that in 2015 she did a solo 7,000-mile road trip across the upper part of the country. She most recently traveled with her daughter to Puerto Rico in 2016 and on an Alaskan cruise in 2013.
The family would like to extend a special thank you to those who provided assistance, support and friendship to Leanne over the last year. Deb and Irene, we are grateful you were both in her life; thank you for all that you’ve done for her. To the Banner ICU team, THANK YOU for your demonstration of excellent care, knowledge, compassion and keeping us apprised of her condition.
Services will be held in Arizona on August 12, 2017, and in Minnesota on November 4, 2017.
