Mrs. Turner was born on March 18, 1917 to Hazel Tracy and Elbert Henry Hix in Chicago, Illinois. She spent the first years of her life there. She graduated from high school in Chicago, after which she moved to Corpus Christi, where she began to attend the new Del Mar College in the evenings. It is there that she met John J. Turner with whom she fell in love. They transferred to the University of Texas and married on December 22, 1938. Their impulsiveness led to their having to return to their respective boarding houses that evening, and later having sufficient funds for only one of them to continue with their education. It was decided that John would be the one to continue in Chemical Engineering. With Hazelann helping to provide financial support, John graduated in 1942. 
As an Officer in the Navy, John and Hazelann moved to Dahlgren N.P.G., Virginia. Their first daughter Donna Louise was born and a few years later their second daughter, June was born. After moving to California, Hazelann and John enjoyed traveling, tending to over 200 avocado trees and the wine country. In 1989, they returned to Texas for the second and final time where they lived in Kerrville, having moved there from Ojal, California. 
Hazelann was dedicated to teaching, from Girl Scout leader to Sunday school. She taught at the Margaret Hope Nursery School in Ventura, California for many years. While in LaPorte, Texas, she taught pre-Kindergarten at Beacon Private School. 
Hazelann was preceded in death by her husband of sixty-one years, John J. Turner, her brother David Hix from Corpus Christi and her son-in-law Ronald Dale McLemore of Baytown. 
Mrs. Turner is survived by her two daughters, June McLemore, Donna L. Schulze and husband David R. Schulze, grandchildren, Kenneth S. Schulze and wife Diane, Michael Glenn Schulze and wife Erika, Leslie Schulze Vastano and husband James and three great-grandchildren, Evan Michael Schulze, Justin Robert Schulze and Bryan Elise Schulze.
