Sheila Ann (Brown) Turner, 62, of Culver, Kansas, a loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, passed away Sunday, February 18th, 2024 with her husband, Gary, by her side. Even though our hearts are heavy with sadness that her time here on earth has ended, we have comfort knowing the Lord has called her home and she is no longer in pain.

Sheila was born in Lakewood, California on August 27, 1961, a daughter of the late Areta (Peebles) and Jimmy Brown.

On May 20, 2014, Sheila married Gary Turner and they lived in Salina, Kansas.

She was a waitress and loved getting to meet people. She was very friendly and an outgoing person and was always there to help anyone out who needed it. Sheila loved playing games on her phone, talking to her friends, spending time with family and friends. Her animals were her babies and she loved them so much. Due to her declining health issues, she had to retire but never complained and just kept fighting.

Survivors include her beloved husband, Gary Turner; sons, Curtis Payne, Jr., Kerry Payne; grandchildren, Amelia Payne, Kody Payne; great grandchildren, Isabella “Izzy,” and Kolbie; brother, Billy Brown (Sheena); aunts, Sharon Goode and Nana Payne; nieces, nephews, cousins, and many friends.

She was preceded in death by her grandfather, W.M. Peebles; grandmother, Melodese Peebles; and nephew, Dakota Brown.

She will be cremated and there will be a Celebration of Life at a later date in Bonham, Texas.

Gary will then bring her back to Salina, Kansas, where she will be buried.

Donations may be made to American Cancer Society, Salina Animal Shelter, or to help with funeral expenses, in care of Carlson-Geisendorf Funeral Home, 500 S. Ohio St., Salina, Kansas 67401.
