George W. Turnbaugh, 82, of Enola, passed away peacefully on Monday, November 3,
2025, after a brief illness. He was the son of George David and Marian Elizabeth
(Kuhn). He was a proud father and is survived by his daughter, Stephanie Larkin (David
Milligan).
George was a 1961 graduate of Blain High School and in 1965 received his bachelor’s
degree in business administration from The Pennsylvania State University. He retired
from Blue Shield with nearly 30 years of service. He enjoyed meeting people and
spending time at his favorite diner, where staff was his extended family. He loved cars,
especially fast cars, and in his younger years could be found wandering the aisles at car
shows. He was a magazine collector and a voracious reader, sharing a love of history
with his daughter. He loved to listen to Penn State football and Philadelphia Phillies
games on the radio and proudly wore his Penn State sweatshirt. He was generous, with
sharp wit and a silly disposition.
Visitation will take place from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. on Wednesday, January 21, 2026, at
Sullivan Funeral Home, 51 North Enola Drive, Enola, PA 17025. A Masonic service will follow from

One memory on “George W. Turnbaugh”
George was a good person. I knew him for a long time. Unfortunately we lost touch for the last four years. I remember all the times we use to have lunch and dinner together at the diner. We always use to share old magazines and books with one and other. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. Rest easy George.
