Michael Leland Turner was born in Pontiac Michigan in 1946. His
father, an Arizona native, brought the family back to Arizona in
1947. Michael spent the majority of his younger years in Clarkdale
with his grandparents, and cousins. Michael’s parents moved to
Tucson and then to Tempe where Michael graduated from Tempe high
school. Michael joined the navy right after high school and served
till 1969. He attended A.S.U. for a while, then moved back to
Clarkdale in the 70’s to help his father run the “Turner Texaco
“service station on main street Clarkdale.

Michael helped the Made in Clarkdale art show from its inception
with anything he could, but only started showing his art from 2003
until his health no longer allowed him to participate.

Michael is survived by his wife, Crystal, sons, Stephen W. Bernett
(Kimberly) OK, Trinity N. Bernett (Margaret) IA, daughter Michelle
Gilleney (Brian) WA, and a nephew Adrian Turner of Tempe AZ.

There are 10 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren.
