JACKSONVILLE, FL : One year after a mother of five children was killed in a head-on collision on Wednesday, January, 10th 2018
One year after a mother of five children was killed in a head-on collision in Jacksonville's Lakeshore neighborhood, her family held a vigil Wednesday night at the site of the crash.
Tomonia "Michelle" Turner was traveling east on Lake Shore Boulevard about 3 p.m. Jan. 10, 2017, when another car heading in the opposite direction left its lane and struck her vehicle head-on, according to police.
Turner, 37, died at a hospital.
A year later, more than a dozen friends and family members gather to remember Turner. They described her as a wonderful person who cared deeply for her four sons and daughter.
"We never know when it's going to be our last day, so love all your family while you have a chance," said Yolanda McGriff, Turner's sister.
Willie Turner said it's been a rough year after his daughter's death.
"It hurts me every day," Willie Turner said. "Even now, I'm hurting because I lost my daughter."
Family members said they're frustrated that police have not made an arrest in the crash.
