The news of Turner's death came last week as she suffered a coma due to an aneurysm. With her many years of battle within abusive relationships Turner used that same relentless spirit to get her voice heard on many public housing issues. Curtis Lawrence a former writer for the Chicago Sun-Times Newspaper gad this to say about Turner.
"Officials at the CHA tried to ignore her, and she just demanded to be heard," Lawrence stated.
Turner was survived by two sons Larry Jr., Landon, a daughter, Latanya, and a twin sister Daisy.
