In Memoriam: Edward Turvey (May 16, 1948 – May 28, 2021)

Ed (Edward) E. Turvey, 73, passed away at home on May 28, 2021, with family by his side. He was born May 16, 1948, to Albert and Maud Turvey in Julesburg, Colorado.

Ed had a heart of gold and was not a person to turn anyone down when asked
for help. He was a husband, father, and friend. He loved the trucker’s life for 40 years and would have driven longer if it had not been for his health.

He is survived by his loving wife Joyce Turvey, children Ed Turvey (Cindy), Joey Derolier, four grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren, and his sister Alberta.

Ed was preceded in death by his mother and father Albert and Maud Turvey, his high school sweetheart Susie Turvey, his three sisters, Ruth, Mary Jane, Marie, and his brother from his second marriage, Joel.

Arrangements by Unger Funeral Chapel, Silverton, Oregon.
