Mozelle Buzzard Turner was born on December 19th, 1945 in Tahlequah, OK, the daughter of Easley and Lydia (Swimmer) Buzzard. She grew up in a family with one brother and three sisters, EJ, Lucille, Shirley and Sylvia. She decided she was ready to start her family and married Roy Turner Sr on January 4th, 1965, in Tahlequah, OK. This union was filled with love, laughter and twelve children. Tammy, Lisa, Chooch, Sally, David, Maggie, Steven, J.R, Amanda Matthew, Lana and Lonnie. Mozelle spent her days caring for Roy and the kids, keeping house and cooking some of the most amazing fried chicken, biscuits and gravy, dumplings and the best Thanksgiving turkey and all the trimmings. The day started off with her morning cup of coffee and her cigarette, and the chores began, mixed with her favorite soap operas, As the World Turns, All My Children, One Life to Live and General Hospital. She would watch wrestling religiously, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin being her all time favorite. She could be found listening to country music early mornings after watching the news. She never ran out of chores to do, mouths to feed, scrapes and bruises to tend to, and grandbabies to love and tend. The good Lord blessed her with 35 grandkids and 32 great grandkids, and she loved each and every one of them. When she had a little spare time, she liked to go check out a yard sale or two or a good resale shop. She had a wonderful sense of humor and the best smile, always making those around her feel at ease. She loved to have long conversations with everyone. She was also a good listener. She was funny and loved a good laugh. She took care of her pride and joy Matthew, until her last days. Her heart belonged to the Lord she served and then the family she adored. She was happiest with all her animals she had throughout her life, especially Homer, her goose. And when she was surrounded by every child, grandchild, niece, nephew, cousin and friends she had. She passed from this life on April 19th, 2023 in Tahlequah, OK, after reaching the age of 77 years. She leaves a vacant chair that can never be filled.
She is preceded in death by her grandparents, her mother and father, her beloved husband Roy, two sons, Timothy "Chooch" Turner and Roy Turner Jr "J.R." as well as two daughters, Tammy Wagnon and Sallie Budder, one brother, EJ Buzzard and her sister, Lucille Samples.
