Jill Turner Obituary

Jill Kathleen Turner went home to the loving embrace of our Heavenly Father on August 4, 2024, at her home in Dixon, CA.
Jill was the youngest of two daughters born to Fred and Irene Turner in 1968. She grew up in Ventura, California, where she was the classic beautiful beach blonde who spent her summers on the beach or water skiing. Jill attended Buena High School, graduating in 1987 then attended Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, majoring in Agricultural Science graduating in 1993.
Jill married Tom Bors in 1994, and they had two children together, whom Jill adored. One of her greatest pleasures was riding and showing horses in trail trials and reining. Jill's career in livestock feed sales spanned over three decades, and she cherished the work she did at Farmers Best Feed. Jill was a member of the Dixon May Fair Board and a 4-H youth leader for twenty years.
In the last nineteen months, Jill underwent a brave battle with brain cancer. Her positive attitude of "We got this!" supported and sustained her and those around her.
Jill is survived by her children, Dale and Grace Bors; her mother, Irene Turner; her sister, Brenda Lacey (Mark); nieces, Molly and Katie Lacey; former sister-in-law and friend, Mary Grimmer (Chuck); nephews, Gabe, Garrett, and Grant. Jill is preceded in death by her father, Fred Turner
