Tiffany Turner was born to Frank and Elizabeth Cudahy Tiffany on December 16, 1920 at a farm in Hardin Township, Greene County, Iowa. She was the youngest of five children and attended country school at Hardin Number 2, until she moved to a farm near Dana in the eighth grade. Veronica graduated from Dana Consolidated School in 1938 and went on to attend nurses training at St. Anthony Hospital in Carroll, Iowa. She became a Registered Nurse in 1942 and enjoyed taking care of her patients at Greene County Hospital and Jefferson Manor throughout her career. Veronica married Roger Turner at St. Joseph Church in Jefferson, Iowa on June 4, 1946. Veronica and Roger were the loving parents of Gary, Larry (Judy), and Dan (Denise); she also has six grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren. Veronica was an exceptionally loving mother and grandmother. She would bring her grandchildren on local excursions each summer (Swan Lake was always a hit) and they were lucky to be able to spend quality time with her and Roger throughout their lives. She hosted dinner every Wednesday after Catechism and her homemade noodles were simply the best! Thank you for the memories, Mom / Grandma! We are blessed to have had many amazing years with you, and knowing you are back in Grandpa’s arms brings us great peace. Survivors include three sons: Larry (Judy) Turner and Gary Turner, both of Jefferson, IA and Dan (Denise) Turner of Perry, IA; six grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren, other relatives and friends.
