Make no mistake about it, though, Turner has a connection with the man his friends called Gene.
And it’s not just because late last month she stood in front of his grave — Plot B, Row 9, Grave 35 at the Luxembourg American Military Cemetery — and delivered a eulogy to honor the soldier who died on Jan. 6, 1945, during World War II’s Battle of the Bulge.
