"Kelley Turner was a joyful and loving matriarch in the Akron community."

With the passing of Kelley Turner, Faculty member in the Department of Academic Achievement Programs, many staff members came together for their testimonials and the impact Turner left on them.

" Kelley loved the city of Akron and loved children. She was always a major supporter of children’s sports, especially Akron’s Tiny Tots league. She was always taking part in campus gatherings, community events and local celebrations. "

Turner's family is in our thoughts during this time. She made such a profound impact on the Department in which she worked in and in her personal life.
