Obituary: Daniel Adam Turnbull

Daniel Adam Turnbull is a descendant of Clark and Rachel Carothers. I was searching through a Kansas newpaper database, to which my county library provides access to card holders, when I came across Daniel's obituary. I was actually looking for his brother.

Daniel Adam Turnbull, 50, of Alma, died Monday, April 11, at his home.

He was born July 8, 1954 in Topeka, Kansas, the son of Ronald Carathers Turnbull and Ellen Maginley Turnbull. He attended schools in Alma and graduated from Alma High School. After high school he work at the Alma Hotel. He then worked for many years at Wamego Sand and several years at the Topeka Capital Journal.

He is survived by his twin sister, Dinah Turnbull of Alma; several nieces, nephews and great-nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; a sister Cynthia Stuewe; a brother, Michael Turnbull; and a nephew, Michael Turnbull.

Graveside burial services will be held at 2 p.m., Friday, at Bethlehem Cemetery, southeast of Paxico. Rev. Charlie McClelland will be officiating.

The family suggests memorial contributions to the Dan Turnbull Memorial Fund and those may be sent in care of Campanella-Gentry Funeral Home in Alma.
