Donna J Culpepper Turner

Donna was born on October 16, 1949. Known to her family as “Bunny,” she was raised in Birmingham, Alabama. Donna was a selfless single mother and a strong woman who gave everything she had to those around her. She had an incredibly generous spirit not only to her children, but to anyone she could help. She was a regular donor at the blood bank for many years, and frequently gave to many charities, including the Salvation Army.
