GEORGE R. & ANN TURNER |
||
| George Turner, the High School English teacher from 1954 to 1959, came to Aruba in August of 1954. He had been teaching at West Point’s prep school but applied for a job with Standard Oil as he now had a wife and two children. | ||
| George and his wife Ann and the two children, Diane and George Jr. lived in Bungalow 88 when they first arrived but after a couple of months they moved to Bungalow 301 where they remained until July, 1959 when they went to Norwich University for a one year temporary appointment on its faculty. They loved it there and George enjoyed this job and never returned to Aruba. | ||
| Ann was a professional librarian and was able to have her own career in the States, something she could not have done in Aruba. | ||
| In additional to teaching English at Lago High School George also worked as the night manager of the Esso Club. | ||
|
George said: “Our years in
Aruba were wonderful.”
