Alas, so sad to read of the loss of Donald, who I had been trying to get in touch with for some time now. He and Jenny were wonderful to work with, even more so to have as honored friends. I did THE CARETAKER and 1776 with Donald at Walnut Street Theatre, Philadelphia, shared dressing rooms, what a great man of the theatre and storyteller of same. Joanne and I hosted him a few times in our home, and we will miss both him and Jenny dearly. "Heaven rest you now, Donald!" Love and blessings!

My life was made much larger by having Donald and the lovely Jenny in it. Gin rummy, holiday meals, theatre talk, and bounteous enthusiasm. Ed and I will not be able to attend the memorial service as, perhaps fittingly, we will be on a ship crossing the Atlantic. But our hearts and thoughts will be with the Turner family.

Warm regards,
Fay Barnes & Ed Mihalcin

I have such fond memories of the times I was so fortunate to work with Donald in the theatre.

I did Noel Coward's FALLEN ANGELS with Dondald... twice. Once was with him directing and the second time we played the two husbands, with dear Jenny Turner as one of the wives.

However, the best time of all was when I got to play Norman to Donald's Sir in THE DRESSER (First Stages Theatre Company, 2006).

I have the DVD of A CHILD'S CHRISTMAS IN WALES. I watch it every year on Christmas Day.

Rest in peace, dear Donald.

Heartfelt condolences to all of Donald and Jenny's family.
