On Monday, February 5, 2018 at the age of 82, Donna Marie Spangler Turner died of cancer in Huntsville, AL.Donna was born April 14, 1935, in Huntingdon, PA to Rev. Donald and Mary (Smith) Spangler. She moved to Romney, WV in 1946 where she grew up as a "Preacher's Kid". Donna would tell you that all of those stereotypes about being a PK are true. Donna graduated from Romney High School and went on to Potomac State College. She moved to LaVale in 1963 to raise her own children. Donna liked people, not all of them mind you, but the majority of them. She enjoyed meeting and helping people. She worked over 20 years meeting and helping people at Dr. R.R. Brown's medical practice in Romney, and later at the KMK Insurance Agency in Cumberland. After she "retired," she continued to work part-time at the Uniform Village in LaVale, meeting and helping those same medical professionals that would eventually help her with her cancer. Donna had many jobs and her favorite "job" was being Mom. She loved being a mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Donna did however, leave some time, and love for her WVU Mountaineers and Baltimore Orioles.Donna is survived by her children, Sabrina Turner Wright of Huntsville, AL, Kenneth "K.B." Turner 2nd and his wife Denise Taylor-Turner of Denton, MD, and Gregory Turner of Cumberland; four grandchildren, Kyle (Kari) of Orlando, FL., Kara of Washington, DC, Payne and Seth of Cumberland; and one great-grandson, Killian of Orlando. In addition, she is survived by her brother, Lewis Spangler of Winchester, VA and niece, Cathy of Richmond, VA.Friends will be received at the Scarpelli Funeral Home, P.A., 15205 McMullen Highway SW, Cresaptown, MD, from 5-7 p.m. on Friday, April 13, 2018.A private graveside service and interment of ashes will take place in the Lahmansville Cemetery, Lahmansville, WV.One could argue that forty-four-year-old cancer-fighting mom Beth O'Rourke summed it up best while penning her own obituary:"Cancer does not care who it takes, who it hurts, or honor or love. It comes into your life, and starts to break the threads that hold you and you are left to see pieces of yourself slip away and dreams fade"However, in the end is when the most amazing thing happens, cancer loses its strength and grace appears. We need to see it. We accept it and go with it. Grace and love win, not cancer."The Turner family extends our gratitude to all the staff at the Huntsville Health and Rehabilitation Center, and the WVU Cancer Institute, specifically those in the Mary Babb Randolph Cancer Center for their attentiveness and loving care.In lieu of flowers, donations are requested to be sent to WVU Cancer Institute Office of Philanthropy, P.O.
