Bobbie D. Turbeville

Mrs. Bobbie Dean Turbeville, age 93, of Murray, Kentucky, passed away on Saturday, November 8, 2025, at her home at Hickory Woods in Murray, Kentucky.

Bobbie was born on February 19, 1932, to the late Monroe “Ben” and Mary Ann Thompson in Alabama, being the second child of a total of nine children raised by Ben and Mary. She married Jack Turbeville on August 9, 1952, after meeting him in a fateful encounter on a Greyhound Bus destined for Memphis, TN. Further, along with her husband, she was a faithful and active member of the Church of Christ, attending church for literally all her long life. Absolutely, Bobbie had a sincere love for her family and children, and she will be sorely missed on this earth.

Besides her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband Jack, her brothers Monroe, Charles, Thomas, Robert “Lonnie”, and Arthur Riley, who died as an infant, and one sister, Dessie May.

She is survived by her three children; Lavina Belue (Ted Franklin Belue), Jay Turbeville, and Wayne Turbeville (Becky Turbeville), four grandchildren; Tim Turbeville, Mitchell Turbeville, Jamie Turbeville, and Aiden Turbeville (Catherine Turbeville), and two sisters; Thelma Welch and Flora Jean Steed.

A funeral service will be held on Saturday, November 15, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. at the J.H. Churchill Funeral Home and Cremation Services with Steve Welter and Ted Franklin Belue officiating. Visitation will be held prior to the funeral service on Saturday, November 15, 2025, from 12:00 – 2:00 p.m. at the J.H. Churchill Funeral Home and Cremation Services. A private family graveside will be held at a later date at the Gore Springs Methodist Church Cemetery in Gore Springs, Mississippi, where she will be laid to rest next to her husband, Jack Turbeville.
