Tony Lionel Turner

In loving memory of Tony Lionel Turner, whose life's journey began with the radiant sun rise of December 11, 1959, at Toledo Hospital, under the loving gaze of his parents Thomas Turner Sr. and Shevilia Juliet Daniels. Tony's story unfolded against the backdrop of cherished moments shared with his brother Thomas Turner Jr., from the streets of Toledo to the welcoming embrace of Farmington Hills, Michigan, where he nurtured his dreams and graduated from Harrison High School with a heart full of aspirations.

With a passion for the culinary arts that burned bright within him, Tony's path led him to the bustling landscapes of California and Nevada, where he showcased his culinary artistry in esteemed 5-star establishments. His creations were more than just meals; they were symphonies of flavor that left an indelible mark on all who had the pleasure of savoring his dishes.

In the tapestry of life, Tony's path intertwined with the love of his life, Annette, leading to a harmonious union that bloomed under the starlit skies. Together, they orchestrated enchanting events as event coordinators and party promoters, weaving unforgettable moments that sparkled with shared dreams and boundless love.

Upon their return to Farmington Hills, Tony's artistic talents found new expression as a masterful painter and home renovation expert, following in the footsteps of his great uncle. His brush danced across canvases, each stroke infused with the brilliance of his soul, earning admiration from all who beheld his creations.
