The sun rose with the birth of Mother Lorine (Hildreth-Primm) Turner, on February 1st 1922 in Camden, Arkansas to Archie Hildreth and Julie (Sherman) Hildreth. This was a joyous occasion because she was the first of three children born to this union. She was a Very Special person with a warm, mothering and magnetic spirit that was felt by all that came in contact with her, and she remained that way until God took her home. Mother Turner accepted Christ at an early age at New Jerusalem Baptist Church in Arkansas, and was baptized. After moving to Flint in 1976, she joined New Jerusalem Full Gospel Baptist Church and was a long time member in good standing with the Lord and The New Jerusalem Full Gospel Baptist Church ("New Jerusalem"). Mother Turner served on New Jerusalem's Mother Board (of which she was Past President), The Ella Owen Mission, and the Willing Workers. She loved to pray for everyone she came in contact with, and some she never met. It was very common for people around the country to call her and ask that she pray with them. She always had a Care Package for the needy, after prayer. Mother Turner was preceded in transition by 2 sons Samuel D. Primm and Freddy Primm; her mother (Julie Monk), Father (Archie Hildreth), brother (Lawyer Hildreth) and sister Martha Sue Braswell. Mother Turner leaves to cherish her memory: husband, William E. Turner; 2 daughters, Margaret Montgomery of Mt. Morris, MI and Belinda (Husband-Vincent) Powell of Twinsburg, OH; 3 sons, Robert (wife-Yatunda) Primm of Canton, OH, Archie (wife-Daisy) Primm of Flint, and Jerry Primm of Cleveland, OH; step-son, Vanco Payne of Oklahoma City, OK; step-daughter, Evelyn Cross (husband-Carlton) of Camden, AR; sister, Morene Brown of Cleveland,OH; 2 sisters -in-law, Lula Smith of Oakland, CA, Marie Dabbs of Independence, KS; 41 grandchildren; 65 great-grandchildren; 3 great-great-grandchildren; a host of relatives and friends.
