Dolores "Dee" Jean Turner

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Dolores "Dee" Jean Turner. She left us on December 8, 2024 at the age of 77. 

Dee was born in Cumberland, MD in 1947. She lived in Dundalk, MD and attended Patapsco High School and graduated as a member of its first in class in 1965.

She worked for the government spending the majority of her career in Germany, then working and retiring in Charleston, SC.

She loved to travel, attend concerts, and spend time with her family and friends that she loved so deeply.

She was a wonderful mother and grandmother who was always there offering support and love in abundance. She touched the lives of all that knew her.

Dee was preceded in death by both parents, William and Betty Harris, her brothers William and Mark Harris, and her husband and love of her life Donald Turner. Dee is survived by her daughter Michelle Garcia, her grandson Joshua Monteith (Savannah), and granddaughter Emily Garcia and sisters Janice Villa and Tina Myers, along with other family members and friends who were also her family, who will never forget the love she brought to their lives.

There will be a small ceremony in her honor at Arlington Cemetery in VA, where she will be placed in eternal rest. Once the date for this is known, the family will share the details. In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations in Dolores "Dee" Jean Turners name, be made to Wounded Warrior Project.
