About Harry Turner

Harry was reared in a humble environment that valued integrity, education, hard work, honesty, and personal responsibility. His parents emphasized the importance of doing what is right, even when no one is observing. Those values have guided every decision he has made — in business, in civic life, and at home.

Harry retired after a thirty-two-year career as an executive of General Motors, Detroit, Michigan. Most of his career was spent performing managerial responsibilities related to strategic planning and long-range business planning. He managed groups ranging from 200 to 700 employees and managed hundreds of millions of dollars, developing a deep respect for fiscal responsibility and accountability.

Harry's family has owned a home in Arizona for over twenty years, vacationing in Pinetop-Lakeside and falling in love with the people, setting, and outdoor activities. Seven years ago, he and his wife built their retirement home here and have lived here year-round ever since. This is not a temporary stop — this is home.
