Vikki C. Turner

Vikki Carol Turner, age 60, passed away after a brief illness on October 18, 2019.

Vikki was born July 25, 1959 in Des Moines, Iowa to Carl Carroll Turner, Sr. and Bertha Marlene Turner. She was educated in the Des Moines Public Schools, graduated from Roosevelt High School, and attended Des Moines Area Community College.

Vikki was very innovative and enjoyed crafting from a very young age. She could repurpose any item and make it useful or more beautiful. Her artistic and creative mind brought about Tase’, her on-line all natural health and hygiene products. She enjoyed researching natural products that helped with healing and beauty.

Vikki cherished children, and loved their un-filtered off the cuff remarks! She would laugh until tears ran from her eyes. She was an exceptional educator to her children. She treated them with kindness and respect, which brought about positive results.

Vikki is survived by her son, David (Amber) Turner; her siblings, Carl Turner, Timothy Turner, Jeffrey (Lisa) Turner and Joseph Turner; as well as a host of extended family and friends.

She was preceded in death by her sister, Roseanna Turner; her father, Carl Turner; and her mother, Bertha Turner.

A celebration of Vikki’s life will be held from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. Thursday, October 24, 2019 at Hamilton’s Funeral Home, 605 Lyon Street, Des Moines.
