Nothing could ever take place, until her hair was done by her hair dresser, Delbert Minton. She always said he and his wife were the best of friends.
Sissie was a wonderful cook and known for her pies!

I have wonderful memories of Sissie Bradshaw Turner as a student of mine at Plum Bayou School. She was a joy to have in my class. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends.

I can picture the smile coming across her face right now as I start to tell her a funny story or a very funny joke -- she would get so tickled that you couldn't finish telling the joke because she had you laughing with her as well! If the subject of finances ever came up you could always plan on walking down the road to the "poor" house with her, yet you knew she would give you the very last dime she had if it would help you. She was the epitome of fashion, style, and grace too. She would try to make you believe she got that Ralph Lauren purple label suit she had on at Walmart, but I all knew better ..... and she always wore it superbly! My heart is so very full right now, in two ways ... ... ..full of sadness because I mourn
a very sweet and dear lady who I loved so very much; yet it is overflowing with love that she poured out to me and all who knew her. My birthday was the same day as her wedding anniversary. She didn't miss a year sending me a birthday greeting in the mail. She was just that kind of person. My prayers are with you Sheree and family. Your mom was very special.

Sherry and family, It was truly my honor and pleasure to know Ms. Sissie for 45 plus years. I was reminded today of the first time I met her in Havana so many years ago. She was kind and caring and loved and supported her family with all her heart. I will always be grateful for the support you both gave our family when Lance passed away. Sissie will be missed but is on her next journey to reunite with Floyd and other family members gone before her. Please know you all are in our thoughts and prayers in the days ahead. May Gods Grace supply all your needs.

Cindy Blansett.
