Passing of JLC Sustainer Sydney Turner

SYDNEY TURNER - July 10, 1922 – June 11, 2011
It is with great sadness that we must inform you of the passing of long-time JLC member Sydney Turner. Sydney joined the JLC in 1950, and served on many committees during her 61 years of dedicated and loyal membership in our organization. To honour Sydney’s many years of volunteer work, in 1986 the Sydney Turner Sustainer Award was created to recognize members of the JLC whose efforts went above and beyond the expectations of a sustaining member. Her kindness, generosity, humour and style will be greatly missed by us all.
