Wayne A. Turville

Wayne A. Turville, 87, of Edgar, died unexpectedly Friday, Dec. 19, 2025, at the Wells Nature View Assisted Living where he had been a resident for four months.

Wayne will be buried with Military Honors at Chapel Hill Cemetery in Christie in the summer.

He was born Aug. 11, 1938, in Neillsville, WI, to Chester and Helena (Smith) Turville and attended schools there. On June 3, 1961, he married the former Miss Darlene Folz; they later divorced. He was united in marriage to the former Miss Shiriline Frazier in 1989. She sadly passed in 2022.

A Jack-of-all-trades, he had worked as a dry waller and maintenance man. Wayne was no stranger to working with tools and took pride in being handy. An outdoor enthusiast, he loved fishing and hunting. He also had a knack for identifying cars, much to the astonishment of those around him.

Wayne is survived by his children, Karen (Mike) Agee of Mena, AR, Gail Landwehr of Marshfield and Keith (Alex) Turville of Jacksonville, FL; and stepchildren Peggy Sue (Jeff) Garwood and Darrell Powers. He is further survived by 14 grandchildren, numerous great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild. Wayne will also be missed by his sisters, Ann Thompson and Christine Quicker.

He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Shiriline; and his brother, Dale.
