Betty Gayle Turner

Betty Gayle Turner, 71, joined her heavenly father on November 8, 2022. Betty Gayle was born on December 20, 1950, to Julius and Edna Stewart. She resided in Westlake, Louisiana until she married her husband, James David Turner. They lived in Sulphur, LA where they raised their children and ran their business, Dave’s Auto Service.  

Betty Gayle was a unique individual and anyone who met her knew she was unforgettable. From the time she was a young girl and accepted the Lord Jesus as her savior, she dedicated her life to him and used the piano, organ, and singing as a form of worship. She played the piano and organ at many area churches including a long stint with Eastern Heights Baptist Church in Dequincy, LA. She is undoubtedly in the presence of God now and playing her heavenly piano.

Those left to cherish her memory are her daughter, Chalma Pittman; her son, Chad Turner, and wife, Allyson; her 3 grandchildren, Josh (Lisa) Vincent, Jillian (Justin) Hagan, and Kylen Turner; her 4 great grandchildren, Carson Vincent, Cooper Vincent, Ellie Mae Vincent, and Jax Hagan; and numerous nieces and nephews.

She is preceded in death by her husband, James David Turner; her brothers Norwood Stewart and Ralph Stewart; her sister, Judy Kelley; and her parents.
